By Peter Blank, Editor, The Kiplinger Tax LetterOkay, admit it: As you've struggled with your tax return, trying to come up with some extra deductions to pump up your refund or reduce what you owe, you've taken a few flights of fancy.

"Can I count the wedding gift for my boss's daughter as an employee business expense?"
