Tom,

If you have a copy of Turbo-Tax Deluxe you'll find where these trips are deductable if certain criteria is met. I always make sure that I meet those specifications, plus! My ultimate goal in life is to pay $1-million in income tax from year's gross income. That will be one hell of a year.

BTW: I have been audited once in my life, and when I mailed all the paperwork in to the auditor, two months went by and they sent a post card back saying "Thank you for your cooperation. No farther documentation is necessary." I claim every penny I make, but I always take every legal deduction as well.

Yes, you can have fun and still be working--that's why they call this the "Entertainment Business."

See you in Bosier City, LA,

Gary
