Flying Taxes



Here's the thing about crazy people. We can ignore them until the time they become homicidal maniacs. Not good to let them have guns or the obvious lethal weapons, but we probably should withhold matches, cars and planes as well.

Take Joe Stack for instance. Well, maybe just his remains. I can't find out if he's dead, but I'm assuming after flying his plane into an IRS office building in Austin, Texas today he should be.

First he set his house on fire. Fortunately his wife and daughter escaped. Then he posted a crazy rant on-line (the 21st century version of a suicide note) and then flew his plane into the aforementioned building.

Fortunately only two people were injured in the crash.

Times were evidently tough for Sky King who should have sold his plane, paid his taxes and shut the hell up.
