I'd roughly pay 11.5% (based on estimated earnings). I pay 7.3% to PA and the City of Philadelphia. But the cost of living in Delaware is roughly 10-25% lower than Philadelphia, and no sales tax...it seems to be a fair trade off.

We'll see...we have a year to plan, and various factors to consider.

Of course, I live in PA about 300 feet north of the Delaware border and I stopped working officially (ie not in a consulting capacity) in Philadelphia 5 years ago. My work and home township each have a 1% wage tax but with reciprocity I only have to pay one of them.

That Discovery show is being shown again tonight...this year's contest started today.

Rho and I are off to Millsboro tomorrow to see the excitement. Hopefully someone will hit the magnificent mile mark this year.

You'd damn well better shoot some pictures...preferably, video, and make it available for those of us stuck here in the loathesome Midwest where the only thing we do with pumpkins is carve them into jack-o-lanterns and make pies.

What the fuck? Do I look like I'm rich or something? Video...ha! You're going to get pictures on Kodak film and like it!

Elspode · 10-31-2003, 11:36 PM

35 mm motion pictures? Okay, but you still have to convert it to digital!

Hey...wait a minute. You've got a digital camera, if memory serves...

elSicomoro · 11-01-2003, 06:58 AM

No sir...one standard 35mm and a professional one with various lenses.

I had to build a trebuchet to do this back in highschool. It was fun. And horrible. I think the pumpkin went 10 feet or so.

...The original Dupont factories were all in Delaware and since they lived onsite, many of the estates are located there.

One of the reasons you can't legally use drugs is because DuPont got it outlawed. It's a small world eh?

I am sad to report that there will be no photos of the Punkin Chunkin. We went down there, but didn't go in. Long story, to be explained in the Road Trip thread.
