Even if Big Oil and the Hedgies aren't.
Not only am I stuck with CDs earning whopping interest anywhere from .5% to 1.5%. But, also today, I fired off a check for $5,195 to Uncle Sam on top of the taxes I already paid.
I am doing my good citizen thing. And, I haven't even seen my NEW property taxes which were $8500 last year. Definitely bleeding taxes through the ears.
A CUBS RESPITE
Tomorrow, I will drown my sorrows going out to Wrigley Field, well, on the bus there and back, anyway. I can't afford to pay he prices at the ball park. I'm betting they are at least $6.
I can't help but remember writing in my journal back in April of 1981 that I had gone out to Wrigley for the first time that season and found that I couldn't afford to drink there any more as they had raised beer prices to $1.50!!!
