mike d is back in town
My vacation was fantastic. It included such wild adventures as an 8 foot sand castle:
more kiteboarding:
40 scoops of ice cream:
and the two following conversations:
Mom: I don’t think babysitting earnings should be taxable.
UncleSteve: All income is taxable. Even that earned by selling illegal drugs.
mom: what?
UncleSteve: it’s true. In fact for hard drugs like heroin you can’t deduct Cost of goods sold, but with soft drugs like marijuana you can. So if you sell 500,000 dollars worth of Heroin for one million, you’re taxed on one million. But if you sell 500,000 dollars worth of marijuana for one million dollars, you can deduct the 500,000 you spent to purchase the drugs.
Dad: what about prostitution? can you deduct the girls wages?
UncleSteve: yes you can.
Dad: Do the girls lose value over time?
UncleSteve: Yes, I suppose you could say that the women depreciate in value as they age.
Conversation 2.
Old Man Schenk: what’s so great about Bo Bice?
mike d: I think it’s his ability to remain true to himself and not be bought out by american idol.
Jill: Theresa did you see when he sang a capella?
Theresa: YES!
Jill: did you die?
Theresa: I died.
Jill: I’m dead!
Theresa: I’m dead too!
