#Memories Yesterday was really a beautiful day! Aaron and Ben helped me hook up the old tow cable to the wooden climber and the swing set and we hauled them both over to The Edge Of The World. There’s a drainage ditch about four-feet-deep and at least that wide that runs across the entire south length of our property. We only mow the grass to within about 12 to 15 feet of that ditch and things grow pretty wild and woolly along there with all the water available and the deep shade of many trees. Whenever we have any fallen trees, broken limbs, grass clippings or anything that will encourage critters to hang around —— we always say, “Go throw it over the edge of the world!” That being that unknown expanse of wilderness by the drainage ditch. So now the old playground equipment and the busted basketball hoop are standing in the wilderness at the edge of the world.

I read a book called Federal Mafia that claims the government is illegally collecting income taxes and that there is no such law or ordinance stating you must pay them. The book also claims you can file ZERO on taxes and never pay again. Wouldn’t that be nice! It’s a very interesting book and makes you start thinking if we really are handing over “Free” money to the government?

Hi Kyle ——> The truth is that the income tax as it is now collected was never approved by Congress. I wouldn’t try challenging them on it though because legal or not —— The Infernal Revenue Service WILL send you to jail for not paying. Wesley Snipes just got sentenced to prison for tax evasion and he can afford better lawyers than we can!
