Good morning everyboomie.
It's Wednesday. MAIL DAY!!!!!
If you're not sure what I'm referring to you need to reread the jokes.
Doesn't it seem strange that Wednesday falls on the same day every week?
I thought it rotated back by one day each week.
Did you know that if you were born on February 29th, then you don't really exist, and you don't have to pay income tax?
The down side is you probably won't get many birthday gifts either.
I wasn't lucky enough to get out of paying income tax, but since I was born in December I only have to pay tax on my December earnings.
I am SO happy I was not born in January.
I hope you guys find something to smile about today.
