Ready, set … nothing

Today marks the end of the calendar for March, so unless you’re like me, and filed your taxes in February, chances are you’re sweating out that April 15 tax deadline.

Did you say “tax,” Bryan?

I most certainly did, and guess what, our government’s brilliant stimulus package is heading your way too next month. Only this time, it’s a little bit skewed. President Barack Obama has requested that employers adjust their payroll to start giving the tax breaks that basically equal out to your cut of the money our government just made up out of thin air.

How does this affect you? Congratulations, my friend, if your company adjusted it’s payroll accordingly, you’ll be getting an extra $15-$20 a week courtesy of Uncle Sam.

Here’s a list of things you can buy for $15:

15 and 1/15 Britney Spears songs on iTunes
Two “value meals” from Burger King (just don’t “King Size” it)
Three gallons of milk
Gratitude from Pauly Shore on an L.A. street corner begging for cash (seriously, the guy has to be broke by now)
