is that you? That's me, son. How you doing, boy? Well, I want, I want a minute of your time, but I want to tell you what happened with my, with my income tax.
I went to see one of them people, one of them PCAs, like he was talking about. Yeah. And he told me, he said, I owe $6,115. And no, I want to tell you, I just might near had a heart attack.
Because, you know, I like I told you, I ain't say nothing. Well, anyway, I was I went to the church house yesterday and I got to talking about to one of them people there. And you know, he's one of them PCAs, too. He'd been doing taxes for all he's, he's well, you know, 25 years.
And so he told me that he would do my taxes for me. He said that we was brothers in Christ and he would do my taxes for me. So I brought him my, what all my information, you know, the what I'd, what I'd been paid, you know, by that school and that lumber camp and that hospital, you know, he had got that ad machine out and convinced, you know, hitting all them keys and adding that stuff up. And then he asked me, you know, and this is something that other fellow didn't do, he asked me what I had spent, you know, to buy all that equipment and and all that.
You know, I played that concrete at the barn, you know, and and bought them that pasteurizing machine. I don't know what that is, but I know I bought one. And I asked him why he wanted to know he said, I could appreciate that stuff. They said that if that's true, he said I could appreciate that stuff.
Well, I do appreciate it. I know it. But he said that, you know, you could take that off of your bill. If you'd spent money, you know, it's what he said, that's true.
He said they call that he said they call that appreciation. Well, it's deductible. Yeah. Well, he he cut it.
I told him all that stuff, you know, given the figures and of course, he said, first of all, I told him about how much and he said, no, he had to know you just exactly what he was. So I went down and I hunted and I found all the coffee. Thank you, baby. That's right.
Well, I found all the papers finally that he wanted and no, he figured my taxes again. And he said, I didn't know not one penny. He said all that stuff could be took off. And they said, I didn't know one penny at all.
And I was just tickled to death. Hello. Yes, sir. Hello.
Yes, sir. I'm here. You know, I don't why it keeps cutting us off that way. But I could show here you I hear everything you're saying.
Hey, yes, sir. I don't know why in the world it keeps cutting us off. But anyway, I'm gonna let you go and I got everything straight. Hey, don't hold that phone here for just running out of there.
All right, that's good. Well, anyway, what I was telling you is I got my taxes straight down. But what that feller told me he said that if I was to make out my phone, definitely next year, he said I could lay some of that money aside, you know, because I probably won't have no of that appreciation next year. And he said I could lay some of that money aside so that you know, they would do and he said I might even get a defund if I if I laid money aside, you know, paid a little in as a year went by, you know what he was talking about.
Said you might get a boy a defund that you said it might get a refund. Oh, yeah, I don't know exactly what's on my $1,300 this year. You got how much? How much?
1,300? Good. Goodness gracious alive. Boy, I love to get a hold of something like that.
Well, maybe well, not good. Well, let me ask you another question. No, boy, before I let you go. Now, there's a painter down here that hangs out in this tree and I called the police and he said to one old painters in Arkansas.
Well, I can tell him that there's about four or five down here. There's a and I know a painter when I see it. Me too. Right there.
I can tell him that's what he told me he said to one nun. But there's only a lot. There's old female painter down here in this tree. And she's got a couple of kittens, you know, they call them kittens.
They can't say yeah, but that's what they call them. So I know there's three and then I know that there's another somewhere because she couldn't have him getting you know, we understand what I'm saying unless there was another painter down here, you know, with Yeah, more. Yeah. So I'm but he told me I was checking, you know, I checked with the zoo and they told me the painters was endangered species is what they call them.
They said you wasn't allowed to kill none. Yeah, is that right? Well, they might say, well, yeah, that probably is true. But it's one of them on my property and I'm scared of him.
I might kill it. But what does he mean? They're endangered because it's endangered. Endangered which means there's not very many of them and they're about to become extinct, which means soon they will be no more of them.
Well, if anybody kills them, they won't be anymore for the same. Well, I'm gonna tell you one thing, no, no, I'm gonna tell you right now that there's about to be three less than there was. I'm with you. I'm with you on that.
I don't care if they are endangered. You know, they're dangerous to me. They are they are dangerous. Yes, they are.
Well, I'm gonna button out. Go ahead. If you kill one of them, you don't want anybody to know it. Go bear with you for it.
You mean they put you in the penitentiary for just killing a painter? Well, it probably just puts you in jail for that and find you that. Oh, she was killing those endangered species. They'll find you.
Well, I won't. I sure won't tell you won't tell nobody and absolutely not. You know what? I won't tell nobody either.
Because I do say I'll bury them suckers is what I'll do. Well, I won't let you go door. I appreciate all your help. And I'm glad you got everything.
You got somebody to help you with that. Yeah, you know, that's that's about the only good thing I can see and go into church is that, you know, it don't do me no good. But it did in that one case because it was me. You know, you do meet some good people.
That guy's a good person. You know, don't know it took him about three hours and he didn't charge me not one red sin for that. Lord, you look at what was well, let me let you go and you if I can ever have you in any way, you know, you make sure you give me a call. Well, I appreciate that.
I do. All right. Well, this thing works. I guess you've got to hold it up to your ear to keep it from cutting out.
I guess so I do that now. Okay, well, you just take it easy and don't do nothing that I would do. You got it, bro. All right.
All right. Bye, buddy.
