Joe, we had the same problem with a Cub Scout Walk-a-thon. The boys asked for donations for the number of miles they walked, and when one man said he just wanted to give a flat amount instead of a per-mile amount, they didn’t know what to do with it.
I’m hung up on Yukoner’s business write off. It’s been a long time since I tried it but I think you can only write off as much gamboling loses as you claim in winnings.

Don’t give in Broomie. Nerwin’s logic is faulty. What’s he get out of it, besides selling all his tickets?
