  1. I got a salon cut Friday. As he washed my hair and complained about his taxes, I said there should be a flat tax of 25% for everybody. He agreed and added, “Republican scum.”

    Then yesterday I looked up Ryan’s proposal and noticed that the flat income tax for people like me is 25%.

  2. Well, randolph, since you asked so nicely…

    I think Mr. B. thinks that it is more profitable to focus on artisinal food sales, vintage clothes, shoes, vintage jewelry, small items — basically these things are more easily transported and unloaded (hence profitable). He explained to me when he emailed me in response to a snarky post I made once that the kinds of things I was interested in….stuff for brownstones, salvage, objects, furniture, dishes…were hard to sell at the Flea and that what they were selling now was much more profitable. And I think that those products appeal to the young, hipster, (and affluent) people living in Williamsburg.

    Legion, I can really see you timing the faux fart in the movie theater to the absolutely perfect second for max effect. 🙂

    …to become the Mark Zuckerberg of the tragically hip crowd and harness their powers for the greater good of mankind?
