Just off the Reuters news wire.

I wonder how it will affect me given that I'm single and no kids?

FAIRFAX, Virginia (Reuters) – President-elect Barack Obama said on Thursday he would offer working families a $1,000 tax cut and improve energy efficiency in millions of American homes in order to create jobs and stimulate the economy.

"To get people spending again, 95 percent of working families will receive a $1,000 tax cut -- the first stage of a middle-class tax cut that I promised during the campaign and will include in our next budget," he said in a speech outside Washington.

He said his economic recovery plan would extend jobless aid and healthcare coverage for the unemployed and include proposals to double production of alternative energy in the next three years and improve energy efficiency for millions of homes.

Continue to pull your cart. I'll be right there next to you pulling mine.

Claim Mason on your tax form. I imagine he eats as much as a seven year old boy.

I should claim my two maus as dependents, as a couple of "Egyptian girls", maybe.
