Anytime you’re in the New York metro area, sound good? Do you just want to crash in the basement though? Might be easier.

Here’s the thang it’s all it’s (old) glory:
Did I ever tell you about the Latin class I took in graduate school? (Why?..because I could.) Did I mention that the teacher stopped class one day about halfway through the year and said: “finally, I’ve figured it out…the reason this class is the best I’ve ever taught is because there are 6 other choices on the schedule, so everyone is here because they WANT to be taking Latin at 8:30am!”?

When you know to ask that question, isn’t that the time?

So… you’re saying you have a pool and a pond, but the pond will be good for me?
Ha, was it that instructor’s first semester teaching, or what? 
What are the odds that the 7am stats class is already full? How is it that I am not the only serious student at my school? Why can’t I get everything I want, the way I want it?

Don’t assumptions make an ass out of… errr… “umptions”? {Huh, that doesn’t sound right, does it?}
Well, how about that shallow depression in the side yard that the water gathers in after a rainstorm, is that good enough?
What is this “rainstorm” of which you speak?

Wasn’t it the first time she’d ever taught the class so early, due to the assumption that no one would sign up for such an early Latin class? Since weren’t the only students who would take such a class likely doing it because it was required, rather than wanting the class on its own merits? Wasn’t it a department-wide scheduling issue that year, that made her have to add the early course for the first time, only to be surprised at how popular it was?
Wooohoooo–who has two thumbs and just got a certified letter from the IRS wanting money!?
(It streams me, the IRS runs a shadow audit service that basically audits everyone–they know exactly how much you should pay. Estimated taxes, zero cost basis, most deductions, and tax preparers are shams.
I could go on and on, but instead I’ll pay my taxes)

Wait, the IRS wanting money is good?
Perhaps I should have added three thousand sarcasm tags?

Doesn’t doing your taxes give you all a swell of civic pride?

Can’t I feel a bit of civic pride along with the anger that I have to figure out if it is worth paying my accountant to figure this out or just pay it? Aren’t retroactive taxes the worst? (Civic pride!!!)
