It's the weekend and my Dallas Stars are winning their opening tilt
against the Nashville Predators. With college football over and baseball
not yet begun, I excited that the NHL is back in business for another
season. The Stars have unfinished business after finishing in second
place in the Edmonton Bubble last year. Keeping fingers crossed for an
exciting season.

Tax Season Late Start
---------------------
IRS announced that it will start accepting individual income tax returns
by e-filing on February 12, 2021. This is a good two weeks later than
usual. The delay is a result of IRS's need to reprogram some forms and
test their systems after Congress passed changes to the tax law on
December 27 that included additional economic stimulus payments and other
benefits. I've been a practioner over 35 years, and many times I have
thought I would like to have more time to file returns. Last year, showed
me what a bad idea that was. I hope we stick to the April 15 deadline this
year.
