Just Do It Phil!

Just Do It Phil!

Yeah I know he is a Callaway guy not Nike, but for my little rant it works.

Phil decided to vent his frustration about high taxes last week, and then explained he won’t discuss it because of the backlash. To bad, he should be able to say he is getting screwed. It is the perfect model to explain to the public in layman’s terms what the affluent are dealing with. How many people have jobs because of Phil Mickelson and his charities, course design, and other business interests?

“If you add up all the federal and you look at the disability and the unemployment and the Social Security and state, my tax rate is 62, 63 percent,” Mickelson said. “So I’ve got to make some decisions on what to do.”

Len Burman, a contributor to Forbes magazine and Professor from Syracuse University decides to tell him to “quit whining”. Shame on you Mr. Burman. You are the problem, not the solution. Professor Burmans thoughtful analysis on Phil’s decision to complain:

Do you have any idea how lucky you are?

Please stop whining and give thanks for being able to earn a fabulous living playing a game and selling golf clubs (even after tax).  99.999% of people would never have that option, no matter how hard they worked on their swing.

Shame on you Forbes, I thought you were pro business. And Mr. Burman, I hope you get fired for being such a communist. Read the article here, and then read the comments. Burman gets roasted by about 99.99% of the comments, which is appropriate.
Oh by the way, this is what Governor Rick Perry had to say to Phil:  
Hey Phil….Texas is home to liberty and low taxes…we would love to have you as well !!
And check out Breitbart
Excellent!!!

I would not try 90% of this shit. I could probably putt or throw the basketball and get lucky, if that!

A Women Has Needs

A Women Has Needs

After 35 years of marriage, a husband and wife came for counseling. When asked what the problem was, the wife went into a tirade listing every problem they had ever had in the years they had been married. On and on and on: neglect, lack of intimacy, emptiness, loneliness, feeling unloved and unlovable, an entire laundry list of unmet needs she had endured.

Finally, after allowing this for a sufficient length of time, the therapist got up, walked around the desk and after asking the wife to stand, he embraced and kissed her long and passionately as her husband watched – with a raised eyebrow. The woman shut up and quietly sat down as though in a daze. The therapist turned to the husband and said, “This is what your wife needs at least 3 times a week. Can you do this?”

“Well, I can drop her off here on Mondays and Wednesdays, but on Fridays, I golf.”

Gettin’ Old Sucks

Gettin’ Old Sucks

Sixty is the worst age to be,” said the 60-year-old man.

“You always feel like you have to pee, and most of the time you stand there and get nothing.”

“Ah, that’s nothing,” said the 70-year-old.

“When you’re seventy, you don’t have a bowel movement any more.
You take laxatives, eat bran, sit on the toilet all day and get nothing!”

“Actually,” said the 80-year-old, “Eighty is the worst age of all.”

“Do you have trouble peeing, too?” asked the 60-year old.

“No, I pee every morning at 6:00.

I pee like a racehorse on a flat rock; no problem at all.”

“So, do you have a problem with your bowel movement?”

“No, I have one every morning at 6:30.”

Exasperated, the 60-year-old said,

“You pee every morning at 6:00 and poop every morning at 6:30.
So what’s so bad about being 80?”

“I don’t wake up until 7:00.”

TGIF…

TGIF…

…and we are headed to the course. Golfing is good for meeting new friends, helping others with their swing, giving some putting tips, and generally enjoying the great outdoors.
Be back later biatches!
