Interesting email, etc

Sorry...the videos aren't working for some reason...but...if you go to Google Video and search under Tim's Finish and Start of the 5K - Tremont Turkey Festival you will find the two videos and can watch them there. You may even be able to just click on these links (although I won't guarentee they will work)!

Anyway...on to the interesting e-mail. Yesterday my Google Notifier showed the red M that means you have an email in your inbox. I opened up my email account and saw that I had an email from the IL Board of Examiners (the CPA guys!) Now...since I have the CPA licence and certificate in my office I thought it was kinda strange they were contacting me. Then I noticed that it was in regards to a re-score. I immediately got nervous and thought...yikes....maybe I really DIDN'T pass the exam. As the letter rambled on...I realized the opposite was true. The beloved Auditing section of the exam, that I got to take three times, had been graded incorrectly the second time I took it. My actually grade was well above the 75 needed to pass...they had originally told me I had a 72. Therefore, I actually passed the last part of the exam in August...I really didn't need to take it in January. Therefore...I passed the Auditing section twice! The silver lining -- I get my money back for the last test! Oh yeah...and I got a letter of apology. Kinda interesting....

I don't think I really have any other interesting news other than that we got some sugar cones this week at the grocery store and they are delicious.

Hope everybody has a good last week of spring (when its in the 90s it hardly feels like spring)!
