Isn't this special!
Just a couple of points that apply directly to car enthusiasts!
An increase in the motor vehicle sales tax from 6.25 percent to 7.5 percent.
Expansion of the sales tax to most services that are now exempt from the tax, including automotive repairs....
Did you read that article or are you smoking crack?
Paragraph 2 mentions that the "Governor... said now is not the time to conisder a tax hike."
The date is May, 2003.
"Such a bill would require a vote by the taxpayers..."
:roll:
Tailchaser are you smoking crack? The date is April 12, 2004. My laptop told me so. :lol:Quote:

onething, I think the date that tailchaser was referring to is the one quoted in the article, not the one found in the bottom right-hand corner of your computer...
My guess is that since we haven't heard anything more about it in the past 11 months, it died in committee. Does anyone have any newer information to add, or are we just going to keep hurling insults at one another... :tongue: :wink: :lol:Quote:

True on the date, false on the crack. Some of this has remained intact as they try to figure out what to do with the revised "Robin Hood Plan".Quote:

But it does look like my accountant is just trying to piss me off this Monday! :(
WAIT A MINUTE!!! Someone else is getting paid for what I do gratis??? :shock:Quote:

I did hear a blurb on one of my AM radio car shows Saturday that there is going to be a change in the sales tax structure on new cars, but Goggle isn't giving me the info I need, and as Tailchaser pointed out my accountant likes giving me old information! :roll:
Well, that being the case, don't be alarmed when your accountant tells you someone shot Kennedy. You may want to inform him that you already know about Pearl Harbor too.... :lol:Quote:

This is still news...
Things take a while to happen in Texas...
He's just mad 'cause someone messed with his Metamucil and he hasn't had his fiber today. He can be a little cranky when he's not regular. It doesn't mean we don't love him anyless! :wink: :PQuote:
