Now Hiring - Tax Season Suckers!

On my way back to work from the clinic, the bus drove by a couple of buildings where there were independent versions of H&R Block. In front of their offices was a guy dressed up like Uncle Sam, holding a picket sign trying to get people's attention to go to their company for tax services. It was a mere 35 degrees with wind chill of 20 - the wind was kicking but the guy looked like he was having a blast regardless. Several feet down on the same side of the street, I saw another arm carrying a similar picket sign for the same deal, so I thought, "Damn, how many Uncle Sams do you need?" But wasn't Uncle Sam. This guy looked hideous. He looked like he was ready to beat the crap out of Uncle Sam and was about to thrust his picket sign into his own head. This guy was dressed up as Lady Liberty. His face looked like he hadn't shaved in a week and his hair was coarse and dark black while his face was pale white. He stood there, grimmacing at Uncle Sam as though he was saying, "Stop hopping and popping around, or I'll take your top hat and shove it up your ass." This guy stood in one spot. His sign was planted on the sidewalk. I nearly pissed in my pants from laughing so hard. The lesson here is: Find a desperate female to wear Lady Liberty's outfit if they're that hard up for money. The guy was an insult to Liberty's beauty.
