Quote: “The government deficit is difference between amount of money government spends and amount it has nerve to collect."

Why is it that when IRS loses a tax return, it is considered a mistake, but when you lose a receipt, it is considered tax evasion?

Quote: "The wages of sin are death, but by time taxes are taken out, it's just sort of a tired feeling."

Q: How do you humble a person that flaunts their wealth? A: Have them fill out a tax return.

Quote: “Even when you make a tax form out on level, you don't know when it's through if you are a crook or a martyr.”

Q: Why is a tax audit like a tornado? A: There's a lot of screaming and you end up losing your house.

Quote: “When are we going to be allowed to list government as a dependent?”

People often say death and taxes are same, but this is wrong. Death is a taxable event, but taxes never die.

On Wednesday afternoon when I open box, cards fall into three categories.

One: Issues that are too late to do anything about. This is my favorite category. The theory being if you postpone anything long enough it will be too late to do anything about it. Many of red cards fall into this area.

The interesting thing is, when item is first put on red card and placed in box it seems to be extremely urgent, as though something needed to be done right away. However, placing it in box and forgetting about it until Wednesday takes away thorn of urgency.

Two: Issues that are no longer urgent, important, or needing any attention at all. This, too, is a favorite category. Too often a certain person in our house, (I'll mention no names), insists that a thing needs immediate attention. However, some things postponed long enough take care of themselves.

Most issues, if left alone, will work themselves out without any outside help. And I consider myself outside help. The further outside, more comfortable I feel.

Three: The final category, issues that can be postponed until next week. Many of these are green cards. As I go through cards, regardless of their color, I try to postpone as many as I can.

There is a finesse in this aspect of WWC. It takes a long time to develop expertise in area of postponement.

The key to all of this, of course, is to carry about on your person at all times enough colored cards. It is a sad day when I run out of cards, usually yellow cards.

Then a thought emerged in back recesses of my mind. How many trees have been used to produce all these 3x5 cards I've been using. Immediately, I brought out a fresh red card and made a notation. I cannot wait until Wednesday to find out how this works out.

Of course, there is a better way than WWC. David, that marvelous Shepherd Psalmist of Lord wrote, "Trust in LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths." (Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV.)

Instead of committing my anxious thoughts to cards, I could "Commit thy way unto LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass." (Psalms 37:5 KJV).

Recently, WWC has given way to WNPM (Wednesday Night Prayer Meeting).
