That time again?

So, many of you know that it has come time for me and asdr83 to move again. It looks like we’ll be moving across the space of time betwen 8/15 and 9/1, and we could definitely use *your* help. We’ll take help with three parts of the process: packing, schlepping, and cleaning. If you would like to help us out, feel free to shoot us an e-mail or leave a comment, and lt us know what parts you’d like to help out with. Thanks in advance, and afterwards, an during. Feeding of volunteers is a distinct benefit.

On the plus side, it look like we’re only making a small hop from one part of Framingham to another, so the schlepping crews won’t have to go far.

And who’s bright idea was that?

So the IRS is cutting half of the tax lawyers who audit the wealthy. Good idea? I don’t think so.

I’ll admit that not being one of the wealthy, I do perhaps have a opinion colored by perspective and jealousy, but setting that aside, does it make sense to you to have a policy that clearly has the support of at least a simple majority of the population, and then go out of your way to make it impossible to police simply as a way of disregarding it? It strikes me that those most likely to be impacted and therefore the most likely to object are also those with the political currency (let’s face it, in a capitalist society [which I don’t inherently object to], economic currency _is_ political currency) to find ways to mitigate any possible impact.

Something in this screams conflict of interest, of the sort that got Abramoff in trouble…
