1858 - Tax time

Tomorrow is tax day. Sort of.

Everyone will be having these eureka moments for the next few days.


If you do this well you can get a government job.


When compromise talks actually started.....


This method of tax collection started in India.


Maybe the solution is for everyone to incorporate.


When all else fails, start turning people in.

This is all just too taxing. I'm going back to bed.

B - Very good idea.

A - I'm staying home on the 17th.

BKE - I didn't know why we have until the 17th. I looked it up. 'Emancipation Day, a holiday observed in the District of Columbia' is on the 16th.

D - If you lived in the bootheel of Missouri you're close enough to be able to work in 7 states.

D - I don't doubt that.

BO - We're done with our part. Now it's up to our tax prep man. I think he's already filed for an extension.

This is why I use Turbo Tax... I'm glad mine have been done for awhile now.

EPT - I think they're waiting for me to send money IN.

MD - I have a retired IRS friend that swears by Turbo Tax.
