To all you "high earners".....

I just saw this on my account this morning. My sincerest thanks.


"05/02/2008 CREDIT US TREASURY 220 TAX REFUND XXXXXXX02 IRS In Progress $1,800.00"


I'm eyin' some 22" wire Dubs for my wife's Envoy j/k

I am now officially a welfare case

I'm not sure why they are calling it a "Tax Refund", they're not refunding me anything....it's damn gift.

That they are borrowing from China! But you should be thanking your kids or grandkids, not the "high earners".

They don't have to borrow the dough to not take it from you, only to "refund" it.

Wait a sec, who said a tax cut is a bad idea?

Did you mean to say this:

Urrrr, what? Need to help w/some inflection/punctuation to get where you're coming from.

The "refund" is really a tax cut for this year to try to get people to spend more, (as its stated objective). It is not available to all earners, most specifically those earning above a certain amount. Hence, everyone gets a tax cut for last year except those high earners. Thanks dem congress and GWB - non-real (financially) repub.

BTW Len, knock yourself out. Add pics so the "life, vicarious" can be experienced

OK, how about hookers and blow at my place with the money? I'm not sure what our quality or quantity of either will be with $1,800 but we can try. I'll check with the wife to see if she's cool with it, but it shouldn't be a problem

Hey Chris, come on over and maybe we can earn some of that money back by panhandling on the street corners here in the city. I know all the good places.

If we pool it with my $1,800 we can afford 54 minutes with a Spitzer quality hooker!

A few extra minutes, does that mean I get to go twice?
