You're becoming more and more difficult. :)

I'm a New Englander. We're (or "we are," if you prefer, but never "were") BORN difficult. I was difficult in my mother's womb. LOL -- no really, she says -- not without a linger hint of resentment -- that I kicked an awful lot.

Have you done your taxes yet? Huh? HUH?

No seriously -- what do you think of Taxman's idea?

"We're (or "we are," if you prefer, but never "were") BORN difficult "

Hmmm - might have to come up with another rhyme for you, BORN Free ~ ~ ~

I never figured out what vtor.org has to do with this. How is that different from salestax.org?

Yup! I had a lot of fun wearing that "mock hippie" necklace. I suspect (hope!) that my fun with it is not over.

And, I bought it "just for fun" in Danang, RVN in 1966, never thinking I'd have an opportunity to wear it in a real street theater demonstration! Good thing I am a packrat!

"Good thing I am a packrat!"

Thank heaven there is a man who is a packrat!!

Reminds me of the time an auditor was in my department, going through my records.

He was a pleasant sort, and in chatting he bemoaned the fact his wife is one, expressing his belief if she hadn't used/worn/needed something within two years - 'CHUCK it' - period.

My reply was WRONGO, Bucko -
it is possible you might need it a whole 11 years out, and you'd be deprived of the smug feelings generated by having just the article you really, really need.

LOL! I missed the "Click me" underneath my picture the first time I read the story. That lead to my confusion, but now, I'VE GOT IT!

Well, I also had my third cuppacoffee, which helped a lot.

Ah, yes, the Betty Crocker Brigade. That is not a "bad" reversion, IMHO:

"If a man does away with his traditional way of living and throws away his good customs, he had better first make certain that he has something of value to replace them." Basuto Proverb.

I would suggest that we all (men and women) have lost some good customs due, in part, to the NOW gang and other militant feminist NAGS.

And, further, I would suggest that we have replaced our good customs with trash "customs."

So, how do we bring back the Betty Crocker Brigade?

Congrats on being one of FR's finest - of course those of us having the pleasure of knowing you already knew that:)

Also, thanks for everything you've done and continue to do.

An additional argument for the national sales tax that you pointed out to me is privacy. What business is it of the government (or it's hacks) how much money we make? With a national sales tax the snooping into our personal lives would end. IMHO that is the most compelling argument of all.

Anyway - see you at CPAC Thursday.

Mornin', everybody !! Happy Tuesday !

I was out yesterday, getting my brakes fixed. I went to a friends house Sunday for the Super Bowl Game and had brake problems. I stayed over and fixed them yesterday...

57 degrees and cloudy right now. It's supposed to burn off and hit around 70 today...
