With a little less than a week to go in the surprisingly-elongated tax season, (Let’s hear it for Emancipation Day!) I think it’s about time to take a break and contemplate some boots.* Like taxes, they are surprisingly high and will be in effect whether the government shuts down or not. Unlike taxes, they have non-functional buckles around the back, partially leather-wrapped stacked heels and make my ankles look thin.
Boots: Better than taxes.
*Already done with your taxes? Go away, I hate you.
