  2. “April is late fall???”

    Heavy sigh.

    I was suggesting that your plan to invade Alaska in April is similar to a couple of famously failed invasions of Russia in the winter.

    Just google “Napolean land war russia winter” and “hitler land war russia winter”.

  3. Hey all:

    I definitely have a libertarian streak in me!

    Haven’t read thru yet, but about UNION MARKET on 7th Ave!

    You recall someone posted in the forum recently that they may be doctoring the scales. So I’ve been paying very close attention to what I buy. I have a sensitive postal scale at home.

    No evidence yet of scale issues. BUT!

    Bastards are charging sales tax on those designer pies! Prepared foods are taxable but to me pies are bakery items not prepared foods. Here’s the applicable law:
    http://www.tax.ny.gov/pdf/publications/sales/pub880.pdf

    When I bought a pie last week and was taxed I didn’t argue on the spot cuz I wanted to make sure. So I went back today for my regular shopping and had a discussion with a not very friendly manager:

    Me: I was charged tax one of those pies, and they’re not taxable.

    Him: If you were charged tax on an item, it’s because it is taxable.

    Me: If I go into a supermarket and buy an Entenman’s apple pie, they don’t charge me tax. Because baked goods are not taxable.

    Him: I’ll refund your money.

    No sign of a change in policy tho. I’m gonna have to get on it!

    Meanwhile if you buy those pies, beware!

  4. GACK gemini, that would mean im no longer and aquarius but a capricorn? gross! but whatever i look at that study with salt anyway cuz they are basing it off the babylonians who werent a very smart peoples.
