Add one more to the stack

I just got a shock in the mail yesterday. It was from the tax collector. Yeah. I’m sure you can guess what it was.  Property taxes are due. But can you guess how much? I was not even close. I had no idea, at all, of the sheer magnitude that would bowl me over like a frickin tsunami. I’m being serious, take a guess.

Did you guess more than $6000? Am I the only one who thinks home owners are being shafted here? Holy crap, I can’t even get my roof replaced yet, and now there’s this. It’s staggering. It’s… oh well. It’s the government. I’m sure they have lots of alternative plans for poor saps like me.

This is depressing. Don’t look at me. Go visit my renter instead. Funny stuff to be found over there.
