		<description><![CDATA[In today's world scandal and gossip seems to travel faster then the speed of light, and good news, well that can be hard to get a hold of sometimes.

Yesterday I received a check in the mail for $420 from my bank, it was an overage from them calculating my taxes because the Homestead Tax Relief Act had kicked in.  Simply put, I finally got my "casino discount".  If your taxes are not escrowed in(mine are), or are already calculated with this discount(mine were not) then instead of a refund you would just not be paying that money up front.   So next year, I will just pay that much less in taxes and might even get a greater discount depending on how the casino does.

So the question is, did you get a break this year?  Are you eligible?  And why is no one talking about this?!]]></description>
