I once kneeled on a tack. So hard it got stuck in the bone. I had to pry it out, with a tool. Which was not easy to find, trying to crawl around without using your kneecaps. We use strictly pushpins in my office. I don't like thumbtacks. They're evil little things. From an evil mind. Speaking of evil and evil minds, I'd rather chew foil (and you know, actual tin foil might not be so bad) than read Federal Tax Forms. I think that's the worst thing IN LIFE. Worse than thumbtacks.They make me so mad I want to hurt someone in the government. I mean physically hurt them. I become irrational. Or rational. The forms and processes are medieval. Archaic beyond excuse. Incompetent. I want something electronic. With no filing - like a sales tax. This is 1998 for crissakes. We put a herd of damn humans on the moon. Thirty years ago. You're telling me I gotta do this shit? Sorry - it's less than six months away... I broke both my heels climbing - the entire two years of pain, operations, and wheelchairs, was less than a week of income tax. Just thought I'd share. :o) You took a day off? I'm spying. (Remember that mirror on "Romper Room"?) You better be in your bathrobe and sneezing.
