On Tax Day, Len and I would drive downtown to the main Post Office. Our aim was to get there a few minutes before midnight as a symbolic gesture. We weren't the only ones with that idea. We joined a stream of cars driving slowly and passing our tax returns to the police who were stationed along the route to receive the deliveries. We honked our horns in solidarity with the Vietnam War protestors on the sidewalk because we all knew where are our tax dollars were going.
Now, I take advantage of the AARP program that provides free service to seniors for uncomplicated tax preparation. Thank you to the friendly volunteers.
Bernie Sanders is forcing a vote in the Senate today about arms shipments to Israel. We're always going to protest on April 15, aren't we?
