A Taxing Weekend
Yep, that time of the time again, tax day is rapidly approaching and the IRS is licking their tax fattened chops. Have to give Cesar what is Cesar's, but why do the forms have to be such a bitch tofill out. I wish the Feds would just take their pound of flesh and that si it. No deductions, or obscure rules or videos on the tax software that may as well be in Chinese. I'll watch some of them several times and it is pretty much like a baboon watching "A Midsummer's Night Dream." Sooner or later we push the send button and just pray we didn't miss something that will come back to bite us later.
I am hoping to convince Mrs. Phos we need to get out a bit and hit the new Greek place again. Want to make sure the first Gyro I had there wasn't a fluke and the rest will be as good.

I heard on the radio today that the IRS tax code not comprises over 65,000 pages. Our Founding Fathers would weep.
i couldn't stand to do taxes myself. I just print up my MS Money file, the mileage and take the W2, 1099 and stuff to the CPA. I happily pay someone to deal with it so I don't have too
It always makes me mad to owe. I do my withholding right so why isn't it enough?!
well, at least one of those codes says that you get deductions for being a good husband (or is it that the Mrs. is a good wife?) (uh, by the way...I know nothing about my reply to your comment at my post. I really do live by the words in Walking on Alligators, and just write off the top of my head...I Know NOTHING!) but, you've stayed the course and get deductions. Pay mortgage? Then you don't get charged twice for taxes on interest monies. I'm waiting for the deduction that says if I netted less than five hundred dollars, I can get some bail-out cash.
Dang! I just GOT'TA get a new bicycle wheel, soon!
If all they took was a pound of flesh I would be cool for the next 50 years.
I try to keep it simple. Even that has proven to be a hard task. When I can't figure out anything, I put a question mark there. I did it this year and the irs figured it out for me and I ended up getting more than expected.
Hello Phosgene Kid, Thanks for stopping by my blog. Sorry I did not answer before but I was so busy I could not read my mail.Well about the cheese, I used a white cheese we have in Venezuela it may be dry or moist with "fresco" the translation is fresh :). I used the dry white cheese, I hope I can post pictures of this cheese tonight, so you can see the texture.Bye :)
How da ya say Gyro were your from?
Is it "Gyro" or "Gyro"?
Just wonder'n?
I hate tax time, it's rapidly arriving over here too
it's pronounce gyro. Bad news for LL, it is thin sliced lamb with tzatziki.
I think we'll take it some where too next year, it is just too confusing. I wish they'd drop the income tax and just go VAT (Value Added Tax) and take all the former IRS staff out, line them up against a wall and shoot them.
And, in the words of our illustrious First African American President, "Arbeit Mach Frei!"
I really dislike tax time, the taxation dept taxes you on your income, then if you manage to save any money and earn interest they tax you on that as well.
Then you have your Goods and Services tax on anything you buy or any service you receive.
Gosh its a wonder you're left with anything and God help you if you mistake on your return they never leave you alone. ♡
