A fiftyish woman commented when the young man charged $25 for a portrait, “Twenty Five dollars just to have someone draw my wrinkles.”  The young man turned and studied her face for a moment, then replied, “I don’t see any wrinkles.”  She immediately sat down and had her $25 portrait drawn.

“The IRS says it’s been getting death threats since the health care bill passed because the IRS is going to be the ones in charge of implementing it. They say the threats people are making to the IRS are so bad that they are actually hindering the IRS’s ability to threaten people.”
