Do something about taxes!

Everyone likes to complain bout taxes. Yes? (Who said No! Now is the day for you to get a job and start paying them.)

My question:

How many people really do something about taxes? Who can say "I made a Stand!" "I let my voice be heard!"

And who can say "I did it with grace, humor and I respected my fellow human."

I have no clue...

I don't even know if it is possible.

(In fact, if you start talking taxes at me I am likely to cringe in horror, my eyebrow will raise, I will slowly start backing away and will make a really clumsy excuse to leave the conversation area.)

But that is beside the point. Actually, all those questions are rhetorical. I don't actually care.

My POINT was that I needed to go blah-blah-blah for a bit so I could post this picture:

I hope it made you smile :)

If you would like to see if in real life, you will need to visit Shelton Washington and have a scoop of ice cream at this place:

Olympic Station Bakery in Shelton WA

The Olympic Station Deli, sister shop to the Olympic Bakery near Spencer Lake.

This newish location is on Hwy 3, right in downtown Shelton.

I recommend the always amazing and delicious Olympic Mountain Ice Cream

This is the same amazing, foodgasm inducing treat I went on & on about at this other blog post.

TMI?

And don't forget to have a cup of coffee, maybe a fresh rugelach. You will definitely need to pick up some freshly baked sourdough rye. And maybe an eclair for the road?

And of course a laugh at the 6 foot tall pig.

Because no matter your political leanings, it sure strikes a certain note.

And all we can really do is grin and bear it :)
