Thoughts While ShavingIt is a wonderful time of the year!!!!

Boiled peanuts are all around and very good.  Should soon begin to see huge trailers, loaded with peanuts headed to market.  Observers indicate a great crop this year.

Falcons held on in late NFL action last night to win 34-23.  Earlier in the day, Carolina Panthers  defeated the Buffalo Bills 9-3 in a defensive struggle.  A win is a win, but.

Another couple of Thoughts.  10 years ago, the debate was whether to begin the effort or not.  My partner, Mike Simmons suffered a sudden life-ending illness and I was thinking I can’t do this alone.  A few weeks later, I decided it was a go with technical assistance from Ken Pervine.  Good decision.

Second Thought, wonder how it would feel to buy a lottery ticket, wake up and realize I was a winner?

I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to pull himself up by the handle.  Winston S. Churchill

Tax reform is taking the taxes off things that have been taxed in the past and putting taxes on things that haven’t been taxed before.  Art Buchwald

Tax reform means, ‘Don’t tax you, don’t tax me.  Tax that fellow behind the tree.’  Russell B. Long.
