  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Why not tax Twinkie eaters instead?

"If they (smokers) didn't keep keeling over from lung cancer and emphysema, maybe they'd be a bigger voting bloc in California city councils," she wrote.


True. But when they're gone, who will be left to pick up health-care tax tab? Which sinners will be next?
