March Is Coming

Quote for the Week

The droll Ogden Nash wrote: "Indoors or out, no one relaxes in March, that month of wind and taxes, the wind will presently disappear, the taxes last us all the year."

Oh, Mr. Nash! You hit the nail on the head. March will be windy, whether it comes in like a lion rather than a lamb, or reverses the situation. And taxes? Allow me to groan silently.

By the end of the month, if I don't get a move on, I'll be groaning aloud. I'm determined to reverse the trend of the previous years and get my return completed and mailed before April 14.

If you're a writer or self-employed in any capacity, visit the IRS and see what's changed since last year. Print your forms and get to work.

Takeaway Truth

Taxpayers, start your engines.
