Not TV in almost twenty years. Can't say I miss it.I was up in Tucson a few months ago and noted another indicator of the good life while checking out at the supermarket. Not one face or name on the tabloids held any meaning. At the motel I asked about good AC. They added TV with remote. "I'd rather have two AC units."

If you can't live in the Gulch live life as IF you were in the Gulch.

Flip side. Did the taxes and they went in on April 2nd. Expected a refund. Nothing by May nothing by June 1st. My sister found a website IRS runs for checking on such things which said I owed a hair over a hundred. No explanation. Still no notification. Sent it in. Check deposited on July 16th finally a letter this last Monday. I owe seventy four cents late fee. Went out yesterday. one check for 74 cents. I'm betting it will deposited by September with no explanation.

Next year turbo tax. Then like television I won't have to bother. The trick is the sister unit's address for all that garbage and she does the paper work or is it cyber work. I don't send them a card number though. They get a check from a bank with one checking account and no savings accounts. I use it for two purposes. Paying seventy five cents to the IRS and Amazon.

Life gets an better I'll have to take up two kinds of fishing As for Baier, Kelly and Wallace? Anything else would be too much information.

The sister unit sent in my voter registration renewal whatever too. But until they have none of the above I doubt I'll need it. I did register as Independent Constitutionalist as far as I know I'm the only member. Received a letter from one of the two left wing parties I forget was it Republican or Democrat. That was the last time had a chance to mark it myself. I wrote in Boortz name. Started getting mail. My sister got curious. Seems winner takes all meant I had been sold to the dark side. More garbage.

I was, selected for jury duty but she explained I was half way to Tonga (at the time) or was it Easter Island she didn't think I'd get the message in time. Must be true it was six months later.

I thought to have her mark No on all the tax levy increases but I think that's illegal. Except in Oregon. We're in Florida.But used to be in Oregon. They are now sending ballots out to old addresses that haven't recently voted or registered. Instead she inserts a card that says None of The Above and No on all tax increases. stamped with my name and mails it back.

She pays the property tax so no one asks.

Everything else goes in the garbage.

Where it belongs.

Life is sweet

Living as IF I was in the Gulch.
