The Royal Wedding is only a few hours away. Reporters asked Carrie Underwood if she had wedding advice for Prince William and Kate Middleton. Her council to William and Kate, or to anyone getting married, is to take it all in and have fun. Mark and Paul of the Breakfast Flakes had a predictably completely [...]

The Breakfast Flakes (Mark and Paul) are known for speaking their mind. This week with Federal and State income taxes due, the subject was taxes.

Kids Got It Easy Today

Cat Country — Mon, 14 Mar 2011 00:55:18 +0000

Spring is the time of re-birth and renewal. With daylight savings time going into effect this weekend, it brought out the cranky in some people. I'm guessing you get a lot of e-mail forwards of jokes and other forms of time wasters at work or home.

My friend Jerry sent this and since the legislature is in session formulating new laws and taxes to cover everything from medical marijuana to how to fund the schools, his cranky letter is worth sharing and laughing over. I'm betting Mark OR Paul could have written this.
