Let’s get right to the point, our TAXES are out of hand!  We work, we get taxed.  We buy, we get taxed. We “own”, we get taxed.  And year after year “they” figure out how to Tax you some more.

To quote Benjamin Franklin:  “Our new Constitution is now established, everything seems to promise it will be durable; but, in this world, nothing is certain except death and taxes. ”

Tax Day Warm up:

15ic Side Straddle Hops / 15ic Imperial Walkers / 15ic Gravel Pickers / 15ic Plank Jacks

Tax Return is due… Pax drew one return from the tax return bag… Sadly they had to pay.  10 Burpees

The Thang:

Mosey to the park for a days work.  You know those days where your boss doesn’t make sense, but you have to do it anyway.  This was one of those days.  It wasn’t all bad we had our work and tax-day music playing.

Add It Up went something like this –

1 Burpee / 2 Monkey Humpers / 3 Plank Jacks / 4 Squats / 5 SSH / 6 Superman – Banana / 7 Box Cutters . 8 Jump Squats / 9 Merkin / 10 LBC / 11 American Hammers / 12 Flutters / 13 Imperial Walkers / 14 Freddie Mercs / 15 CDD / 16 J-Lo / 17 Mtn. Climbers / 18 Seal Jacks / 10 Apollo Ohnos / 20 Big Boys.

Tax Return Due… Another Pay.  5 Burpees.

The Pax had so much fun the first time an audible was called and we reversed our way back through the numbers 20-1.

Tax Return Due… WooHoo a Refund!  20 LBC

Mosey to the baseball fieldhouse and partner up for a round of DORA.  100 Merkin / 200 American Hammers / 300 Flutters while partner runs around the ball field.

Another Tax Return Due…A Refund again!  20 Morrocan Night Clubs.

And with that we headed back to the flag for some Mary.  Sadly the Qs audible caused us to run short on time and miss out on Bear Crawls and Jack Webbs and two more tax returns.  There is always next time.

A quick round of Mary and we stuck a fork in yet another Tax Day.

Announcements:  2ndF Lunch Wednesday. Goonie 5/4. Young Life Golf 5/13. Extinction Run 5/18.

Prayers:  Pax on IR, Traveling PAX, Anchorman, Huck, Turtleman, Gear Wrench.

And as Calvin Coolidge said it… “Collecting more taxes than is absolutely necessary is legalized robbery.”

That sums it up right there.  Til next time!
