Daily Dose of BS April 15

Today is tax day well at least it usually is. Reminder: Tax day this year isn't April 15th this year, and that has nothing to do with a government shutdown. It is because of Emancipation Day, which generally falls on April 16, is being observed in D.C. on April 15 this year. The holiday celebrates the emancipation of slaves in the district.
While many are used to the normal last minute rush to get their taxes squared away before the April 15th deadline, this year things are a bit different. giving taxpayers a few extra days. Taxes aren't actually due until April 18. I still think it is funny that people wait until the last possible minute to file them, do you not know that this is something that needs to be done year after year..... it is one of only two guarantees in life death and you have to pay taxes.
