Well, today at the IRS is tax day. They have booths downstairs and a line is forming. I guess towards the end of the day it will get bigger. I am wearing an interesting shirt. It says "Opposite Day" on it. As a kid I remember Thursdays used to be opposite day. If someone asks you how you are doing say,"very bad". It makes since, since today is tax day. IRS employees are supposed to get their taxes done early and if they don't do them at all they will be fired. I am glad I am not an employee. I always like doing my taxes a soon as possible. Then if I get money back I submit it. If I don't then I wait till the last day. This year I got some money back. I suppose it is justified since I paid $30,000 in taxes last year. Man, I can see why rich people have a lot of deductions, they get reemed. It is worth it to save 3 grand. The lower income level you go the less worth it is to keep track of things. ie. saving all receipts to save $50 a year. I am all in favor of a flat tax. It'll make our systems much easier to code and it will still get a large amount for people who pay more, but it'll be more fair. One thing about both democrats and republicans that bothers me is that democrats idea of rich is anyone making over $50,000 a year and republicans idea of rich is making over $100,000 a year. Then you have republicans who want tax cuts on their idea of rich and democrats who want to raise taxes on their idea of rich and you have single males like me getting scourged on both sides. Now that I have finally crossed over into the republican ideal they announce they want to raise taxes on their idea of rich. I just can't win. Hey, everybody can complain about taxes, from Donald Trump to Donald Duck.

Thought of the Day
"At the Festivus dinner, you gather your family around and tell them all the ways they have disappointed you over the past year."
"And is there a tree?"
"No. Instead, there's a pole. Requires no decoration. I find tinsel distracting."
"Frank, this new holiday of yours is scratching me right where I itch."
- Frank and Kramer, in "The Strike"
