[Tax-chick]

As a veteran of committee-work ... “Is there a way to leave this committee?” “Die.” ... my head and posterior ache with sympathy for Mr. Strong.

“Regarding your first point,” I said to Gary across the table late last night, “are you saying, ‘The County requires that we build the turn lane, but the County will not give us a permit to build the turn lane.’?” “Uh, that’s right,” said Gary, prompting rather lengthy remarks from Jim, to his left, regarding certain personalities at the County, with a few choice words about the Bishop, of whom Jim is not fond.

“Lord, please keep any of us from falling asleep on the way home,” I prayed in conclusion.
