<![CDATA[<p>I haven't forgotten about this place, just been (as always) so busy with other things.</p>

<p>Feeling the need though.  Need may be too strong of a word.  Feeling the tingling desire to possibly post some stuff.  Yeah that fits it better.</p>

<p>17 days and counting to the wedding.  Trying to shore up loose ends and everything, eagerly anticipating the event, wish it would get here sooner.</p>

<![CDATA[<p>A friend of mine sent me a link to a documentary over on YouTube called <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsZO6G7dfpI&eurl=">America: Freedom to Fascism</a>.</p>

<p>Now, on first glance the title tells me that this is already something that is going to piss me off, but hell I have an open mind...and I don't mind getting pissed off every once in a while, so I click on the link and watch the video for a few mins.</p>

<p>Apparently, <em>apparently</em>, there is no actual written law that requires US Citizens to pay a federal income tax.  You can still be fined and jailed for not paying it, even though it allegedly doesn't exist.  So as the title of this post reads "If this is true, and that's a big "if", then I call bullshit!".  I don't get robbed.  I don't get robbed by Tyrone and his band of Merry Men, and I don't get robbed by the federal government.</p>

<p>**UPDATE** - and a big tip-o-the-hat to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tax_protester_constitutional_arguments#Arguments_that_the_Sixteenth_Amendment_was_never_ratified">Wikipedia</a>, saving the day once again.</p>]]>

<![CDATA[<p>The system admin has discovered that the irregular display issue was a result of a downlevel base index file. The file has been updated and layout will correctly display when entered directly into the site. A lingering issue dealing with the use of images in dynamic style definition still exists and is being investigated.</p>
