As the Huffington Post's Jason Linkins pointed out, Actor Craig T. Nelson, perhaps best known his role in the TV series Coach, appeared on the Glenn Beck show last night and unleashed an impassioned rant against taxes. Railing against -- what appeared to be -- the entire idea of government in general, Nelson told Beck he is "really thinking about" not paying any income taxes.

Nelson went on to refer to himself as "a fiscally responsible grandfather" and said he's being roped into paying for government programs he doesn't believe in. "I've been on welfare and food stamps...did anyone help me?" Nelson said, perhaps not realizing that welfare and food stamps are actually forms of government aid....

My comment:

Mentioned at work today how I heard Coach, Craig T. Nelson say on Glenn Beck that he is thinking about not paying his income tax anymore.  They all agreed to his reasoning. 

 

I stated that I was going to claim forty dependents on a W-4 form. 

 

One co-worker yelled, "they will red flag you!"

 

  I said, " nawh, ACORN had came by doing my census.  I told them I was a Democrat, so they said they are reporting I have 40 people living at my house!"

Never hang clothes on the weekend, or Sunday, for Heaven's sake! 5.  Hang the sheets and towels on the outside lines so you could hide your "unmentionables" in the middle (perverts & busybodies, y'know!). 6.  It didn't matter if it was sub zero weather ... Clothes would "freeze-dry." 7.  Always gather the clothes pins when taking down dry clothes!  Pins left on the lines were "tacky!" 8.  If you were efficient, you would line the clothes up so that each item did not need two clothes pins, but shared one of the clothes pins with the next washed item. 9.  Clothes off of the line before dinner time, neatly folded in the clothes basket, and ready to be ironed. 10. IRONED?!  Well, that's a whole other subject!  A Poem A clothesline was a news forecast To neighbors passing by, There were no secrets you could keep When clothes were hung to dry.   It also was a friendly link For neighbors always knew If company had stopped on by To spend a night or two.   For then you'd see the "fancy sheets" And towels upon the line; You'd see the "company table cloths" With intricate designs.   The line announced a baby's birth From folks who lived inside - As brand new infant clothes were hung, So carefully with pride!   The ages of the children could So readily be known By watching how the sizes changed, You'd know how much they'd grown! It also told when illness struck, As extra sheets were hung; Then nightclothes, and a bathrobe, too, Haphazardly were strung.   It also said, "Gone on vacation now" When lines hung limp and bare. It told, "We're back!" when full lines sagged With not an inch to spare!   New folks in town were scorned upon If wash was dingy and gray, As neighbors carefully raised their brows, And looked the other way . .   But clotheslines now are of the past, For dryers make work much less. Now what goes on inside a home Is anybody's guess! I really miss that way of life. It was a friendly sign When neighbors knew each other best By what hung on the line.
