i can't sleep

[soonerbrat]

my day off and i can't sleep past 6
this sucks.

oh...and I hate taxes. I got what I thought was going to be a very nice bonus this year and they took out FORTY TWO PERCENT in taxes. that's right FORTY TWO PERCENT

effing ridiculous. let's not forget that with the remainder, I will be paying more taxes on everything I buy. this sucks. and not in a good way.

[Mongo]

you could go ahead and start drinking

[1stTimeCaller]

Indeed it does.

[Newbomb Turk]

my regular day off too. I was able to sleep till 6:30.

[soonerbrat]

well, I can't afford to drink. what's the tax on beer?

[crawfish]

I would've shared my new cough medicine with you...I slept like a baby.

[soonerbrat]

what kind of cough medicine?

and i slept ok thru the night, just woke up at the butt crack of dawn

That's probably because you were so excited about getting off.

[1stTimeCaller]

I'd rub one out and go back to bed if I were you.

[OUDoc]

I'd rub one out and go back to bed if I were you.
And there you have it.

[Howzit]

We're here to help.

[swardboy]

And some of you people are so committed to finding problems with the Fair Tax. I'd be ecstatic just to pay taxes on what I spend....oh wait, let's just stay with this perfect system we already ENJOY.....

[Sooner_Bob]

I'm off today as well . . . my wife is normally off, but had to go in for parent/teacher conferences at the pre-school she teaches at so I got to sleep in about an hour longer than normal. I guess 6:30 was a little better than 5:30.

Of course now I'm having to get the girls around for school . . . will be staying for their awards assembly and then going back to eat lunch with them.

So much for a lazy day off. :D

A heavily taxed bonus is better than no bonus at all.

[soonerbrat]

you people and your glass-is-half-full mentalities. sheesh

[IB4OU2]

you people and your glass-is-half-full mentalities. sheesh

:D ;)

[ChickSoonerFan]

I don't think you are trying very hard if you are playing on the internet!!

GOOD MORNING!!!!

You have that much more time to enjoy this beautiful freezing day!! And maybe to take a nap later. Naps are great.

[TopDaugIn2000]

I hate taxes. If it wasn't for taxes, I'd have money.

they really rape us single folks.

[Mjcpr]

I don't think they have taxes in the Congo.

[Sooner_Bob]

I don't think they have taxes in the Congo.


So what, only having the death part makes it ok? ;)

[OUDoc]

I don't think they have taxes in the Congo.
They have killer white orangutans or something. I saw a movie once.
You trying to get brat hurt? :mad:

That is the standard rate they withhold taxes (you're also including the 7.65% FICA tax in your 42%). Good news is that you will get it back when you file your return, if they withheld to much.

[Mjcpr]

I'm just saying there are places available that don't have taxes if you hate it so much.

:D

nope, no naps for me. too many errands to run. like going to the bank, and i gotta get my nails done and get a pedicure, then I gotta go pick up my daughter's homecoming dress (she's the freshman attendant), then she has a basketball game, then I gotta take her to get her hair done and get her a pedicure and a manicure, then we gotta go to the boys' basketball game where she'll wear her homecoming dress for 15 minutes at halftime.

[TopDaugIn2000]

do you have a particular nail place picked out already? I can give you a couple of recommendations in Ft. Smith (that's where you are now, right?)

[1stTimeCaller]

Ft. Smith, OKC. Same thing.

[soonerbrat]

Ft. Smith? no. I live in OKC
I'm going to my regular nail shop to get my mani & pedi but i'm taking my daughter to the salon that my cousin owns. but thanks for the offer

[OUDoc]

And you said the kids don't go to PC North, right?
(Why do I keep thinking you live nearby?)

[1stTimeCaller]

because you spend a lot of time outside her window at night?

[OUDoc]

because you spend a lot of time outside her window at night?
I thought it was. I wondered why she looked like Grandma.

[1stTimeCaller]

whoa, the delayed DP

[stoops the eternal pimp]

Paying taxes don't bother me so much. Its the way taxes are spent that can get a little frustrating

[TopDaugIn2000]

ok SOMEBODY just moved to Ft. Smith recently......

[stoops the eternal pimp]

I had a nice meal at the Chili's in Ft Smith a couple of days ago..

[Howzit]

I was in a swim meet in Ft Smith in 1974.

The Market Place a little further down Rogers Ave is delish too.

Did you have to swim to littlerock?

[Howzit]

Did you have to swim to littlerock?

No. But I could. Even though it's rily rily far.

[1stTimeCaller]

I was in a swim meet in Ft Smith in 1974.

did you win?

[Howzit]

I doubt it.

I'm more of an everybody-gets-a-trophy kind of guy.

[Scott D]

I saw a sign on the highway about Ft. Smith once.

I was late for work this morning.

Hell with the way things are going lately, they shoulda been happy that I went to work this morning. :)

[soonerbrat]

my daughter and I went to a soccer tournament with her team in Ft. Smith a few years ago

[phead903]

I live in Ft Smith - and SG06 visits me a lot...

SoonerGirl06 - SoonerBrat...yeah, I could see how you could get confused TD2K, especially on all your pain meds!:D

Maybe yes, maybe no, I had a good sized bonus a couple of years ago which put me into the next tax bracket by about $300. So it ended up eating a little more than what the bonus was, so in effect I had less than before.

I was not happy about that......
