Wednesday 22 March… Yee Haw

 - Seen:  there are two types of countries…those that use the metric system, and those that have been to the moon.

- The Dodge Challenger is hands down the most powerful production car ever made.  It produces over 1000 HP, goes from dead stop to 60 MPH in 1.66 seconds.  It has also been terminated by Dodge.  The car manufacturer is retooling to accommodate the (frankly bizarre) shift to electric cars.  

What’s scary about this is auto manufacturers seem to be dictating policy now, by eliminating via government demanded ‘fiat’ the concept of choice.  

-  90% of IRS audits are done on small businesses and families making less than $400,000 a year.  Small businesses make up about 2% of our national finances, and when small businesses go belly up, no one seems to give a crap.  About the same percentage of families bring home $400,000 or more.  

Statistically this makes no sense, and I have a theory.  The wealthiest of us are more likely to fight back as they have the financial resources to do so.  If this theory is true, then the IRS seems to pick the weakest targets for audits, much like a predator will seek out the weakest prey

- Dear New York taxpayers: how much of your money is being used in a character political assassination attempt?  More than you probably realize.  If y’all continue to allow this, y’all are willing participants 

- I’ll NEVER understand the concepts of reality TV star, social media influencer, or anything remotely related to social justice. These people are lower on my respect scale than a Pakistani telemarketer selling used sex toys

- Since I was old enough to remember words, I heard the phrase “drunker that Cooter Brown.” (Don’t make that face…you’ve heard, said it, or been it, too).  Anyway, I finally looked up the etymology of the phrase. Interesting word of mouth stories.  Look it up

- Never in my history has the phrase ‘I love my country but despise its government’ rang more true.
