3. Here are the states that could make the same claim:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sales_taxes_in_the_United_States

Sales taxes in the United States are taxes added onto the price of goods or services that are purchased in the United States. A sales tax is a tax on consumption, which is displayed as a percentage of the sale price. Sales taxes are assessed by every state except Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire and Oregon. Hawaii has a similar tax although it is charged to businesses instead of consumers. In some cases, sales taxes are also assessed at the county or municipal level.

11. probably has to do with the "degree" of the crime on your criminal record
up to $1000 may be a misdemeanor, over $1000 may be a felony, or something like that.

13. You probably just need to give yourself a "Time Out"
schedule about 1-2 hours and tell all the friends & family you are NOT to be disturbed. Then find a really really sad movie to watch - like Schindler's List. By the end of the movie you'll be bawling like a baby and wondering why you thought your life was so horrible when clearly you were making mountains out of molehills.

I swear by tear therapy. If I don't have at least one serious sessions of bawling my eyes out - it just builds up inside of me and gets real bad.
