"I have better looking legs"

Tgsl, your years of complimenting Pod on his legs have taken their toll -- he now believes he has good-looking legs.

In who's absence, allow me to post some stuff that will make you laugh. I'll leave the pearls of wisdom to her. She's waaaaaaaaay older than I am, so she's waaaaaaaay wiser (or so she always tells me). ;-)

IDIOTS IN SERVICE: This week, our phones went dead and I had to contact the telephone repair people. They promised to be out between 8:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. When I asked if they could give me a smaller time window, the pleasant gentleman asked, "Would you like us to call you before we come?"

I replied that I didn't see how he would be able to do that since our phones weren't working. He also requested that we report future outages by email. (Does YOUR email work without a telephone line?). [OK, OK.... I know this doesn't hold true for all ISPs, but you get the gist.]

IDIOTS AT WORK: I was signing the receipt for my credit card purchase when the clerk noticed I had never signed my name on the back of the credit card. She informed me that she could not complete the transaction unless the card was signed. When I asked why, she explained that it was necessary to compare the signature I had just signed on the receipt. So I signed the credit card in front of her. She carefully compared the signature to the one I had just signed on the receipt. As luck would have it, they matched.

IDIOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD: I live in a semi-rural area. We recently had a new neighbor call the local township administrative office to request the removal of the Deer Crossing sign on our road. The reason: too many deer were being hit by cars and she didn't want them to cross there anymore. I could swear I've recently been with some of these people...

IDIOTS IN FOOD SERVICE: My daughter went to a local Taco Bell and ordered a taco. She asked the person behind the counter for "minimal lettuce." He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg.

IDIOT SIGHTING #1: I was at the airport, checking in at the gate when an airport employee asked, "Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your knowledge?" To which I replied, "If it was without my knowledge, how would I know?" She smiled knowingly and nodded, "That's why we ask."

IDIOT SIGHTING #2: The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it's safe to cross the street. I was crossing with a coworker of mine when she asked if I knew what the buzzer was for. I explained that it signals blind people when the light is red. Appalled, she responded, "What on earth are blind people doing driving?"

IDIOT SIGHTING #3: At a good-bye luncheon for an old and dear coworker who is leaving the company due to "downsizing," our manager commented cheerfully, "This is fun. We should do this more often." Not a word was spoken. We all just looked at each other with that deer- in-the-headlights stare.

IDIOT SIGHTING #4: I work with an individual who plugged her power strip back into itself and for the life of her couldn't understand why her system would not turn on.

IDIOT SIGHTING #5: When my husband and I arrived at an automobile dealership to pick up our car, we were told the keys had been locked in it. We went to the service department and found a mechanic working feverishly to unlock the driver's side door. As I watched from the passenger side, I instinctively tried the door handle and discovered that it was unlocked. "Hey," I announced to the technician, "it's open!" To which he replied, "I know - I already got that side."

I don't think I know of ANY freeper more deserving of such a thread than MY good FRiend Phrank (Taxman) Davis! He is entirely correct in everything he has said about the IRS and the income tax and I, for one, fully intend to see that abomination placed onto the ash heap of history where it so properly belongs!

Can anyone here, or anywhere for that matter, think of ANY gift to our children and grandchildren which would REMOTELY equal freedom from the IRS and the income tax??

I can't!

[Taxman]

Yo, Bigun! Hope all is well with you and yours.

Thanks for the kind wordz.

[Taxman]

Prospective Darwin Award winners in waiting. LOL!

[Taxman]

He is a dynamic speaker, and a very smart man. Fair Tax hired a winner when he came on board.

[Taxman]

I may try it some time. Seems to me that those instructions are in the HTML primer.

Maybe if I read the instructions? LOL!

[Mama_Bear]

Good morning, FRiends!

Billie and FTH, another excellent tribute to a man very deserving of this honor.

Taxman, thank you for your dedication to this cause. I agree with you 100%......the difference is, you are actually dedicating your life to doing something about it. Your efforts are very much appreciated and I am so pleased to see you in the spotlight today.

Billie, I love the pledge and prayer today. :-)

Have a great day everyone!

[Taxman]

Thank you, sir. And welcome aboard.

Rocky got an extra home made peanut butter doggie biscuit this morning.

[Taxman]

Thank you. And, yes, I am for Liberty!

Yes, I believe we can do this, and in my lifetime. Otherwise, I would not be engaged in the battle.

We are working for implementation on July 1, 2005.

What a lovely graphic to grace the thread.

[Taxman]

Thank you. Nice dog. Yours?

[Taxman]

Thank you, Mama_Bear. Very kind of you. I like the graphic.

[Taxman]

LOL! Well, since you are up and about, you may as well do something!

[dixie sass]

That's supposed to be nothing but +'s but instead of pluses it, oh well, lol

I'll be at CPAC end of this week.
