Awesome parodic commentary, Craig! That $250k figure is based on what the principal would actually take home, not what the profit of the company is. So that tax would affect all of, like, 6% of small businesses. Speaking from experience as someone who had a small graphic design freelance business years ago, very very few small business owners go home with that kind of money in their wallet.
Once again, your brilliance shines through!
Hilarious!
Right before logging on I was reading an editorial in the paper about this very topic! But it didn’t have pictures, or a violin, so I think this wins hands down.
There are some ways I sympathize with the notion that money means different things in different places [we we visit family out West, for example, it's always shocking to see how different the cost of living is from upstate NY] but still, $250K is a lot of money, and cutting back expenses clearly means different things to different people.
Thanks guys!
I should clarify that I don’t know jack about taxes or tax plans. I also don’t think I’m smart enough to make a public statement about who’s tax plan is better and I’m not endorsing either candidate’s plan. I’m just making fun of the idea of that being his major problem. I wish I had his money problems!
Craig: Agreed! I’m stressing about a new car payment — I can’t imagine ever having the money to buy a business! And sorry — didn’t mean to make any sort of political statement — I just agree with you about the ludicrousness of this whole “Joe the Plumber” thing. (even though Joe’s a fellow Ohioan…)
I love it Craig. The drawings and the commentary are well done!
Ok Joe the plumber. Not a licensed plumber, right? Is nowhere near being able to come up with the cash to buy the business correct? Is now talking about running for Congress in 2010. WTF, really! I would call him Joe the Dumber but he seems brilliant compared to all the people giving this knucklehead his moment of glory…damn, i have to calm down it i only 8 am on monday morning…
That’s hilarious! I especially like the conveyer belt. How do you do those cool animations? Are they gif’s?
Thanks Michelle! Yeah, they are gifs. Usually about 6-8 frames strung together. I have this really simple program that makes them for you. I can burn a copy of it fo you.
Bullseye! Boo ya!
That is great. I love the mail sorting animations.
Deep breath Hayden, the week is only starting. Save your rage for Wed or Thurs.
Craig: I just learned how to do the animated gif thing last week! It’s a blast doing little animations. I’m not very good at it yet, but, hey, I’m a beginner…
You, however, are a master.
Oh, and I’m more than happy to make a political statement:
Obama/Biden ’08!
Heehehehehe, and you’ve even got Joe being bald.
LOVED the box moving across the belts. They musta packed that package with a TON of foam peanuts since it was so big and the violin so small.
Great commentary, though.
HUGS…
Polt: I’ve never drawn a bald person before. He looks like an alien!
I always love your graphics….nice job! And on a side note, Bossy is looking for gays for her new “featured gays” section and I totally think you should volunteer.
Tam: thanks for the picture of me on Argyle Lounge, haven’t had time to play there yet but had to check out what you posted for pics…it makes me happy to know that you think of me in your real world…
So when does the Official Puntabulous Toronto Gathering planning start? Tam? Polt? Bueller…?
A political discussion on Puntabulous!? I feel like a Kennedy!
Woohoo. Let me know when you’re going to get your butts up north and I’ll drive down. Polt can show us all the fun night spots. We’ll have to track down Scottie C. too. (Is that stalking?) And Hayden can come and hang out on his street corner.
The dollar is great now … for you.
Sucks for me, so cheap to come north.
Yay! I don’t get it!
Violin? Joe?
I don’t like social commentaries if they don’t feature my idol Sexy Sarah!
Enrico: Sexy Sarah Palin?
Enrico wishes he was nailin Palin.
Criaggers: I think youre bald looks like a bald guy not an alien….although the ‘real’ Joe The plumber looks a bit alien-esque.
Offical Puntabulous Toronto Gathering??? How did I miss this??? I’m tentatively planning on going there in April of next year, if anyone else wants to go then, that’d be cool.
Tam: I’m not certain all of you would feel…comfortable in the “fun night spots” I go to…hell, I’m not sure some of you would even go into them….but I think I could find a few spots to take the Puntabulous crowd.
Hmmm, I wish I was nailin’ Sarah Palin…….’s sexy eldest son! Whooo-YAH!
HUGS…
Yes, but *which* Palin…
Ahhhhhh, Dave S., great minds think alike, eh?
HUGS…
Polt: Don’t panic — you didn’t miss anything!
I just thought of that this morning and thought — “hey! wouldn’t it be cool if…” Of course, if Craig can’t be there it would be a bummer… (just starting the guilt trip now, Craig, so if any trip *does* happen, there’ll be enough of a build-up to get you to go…) 
HILARIOUS!!!
Okay, I’m planning to be in NYC for a week in April, better not be the same week/end Polt. That would suck. Get working on those passport applications people.
Palin has an older son? Okay, I googled it. He’s named after an Olympic sport, Track.
Tam: Or those things on your arms after a binge…
Tam: My dream is to visit NYC. I was planning on going in late August/early September of this year, but things at home were still a bit too unstable to be able to go.
Hey, NYC in April would be nice. We can stalk Craig at work.
I’m renting an apartment this time. Cheaper for a week than a hotel and we can cook when we want to. Although right now with the dollar its killing me but Visa is my friend. 
Miss Innocent me never thought of the other usage of tracks. Try not to corrupt me further Dave. I think you’ve already done enough damage.
Yay! Great post, Craig. Don’t be afraid of the bald-headed, there’s nothing alien about us. Except Joe the Plumber, he’s definitely an alien.
I don’t get the fascination with Track Palin. Every time I see his picture, I think he looks unattractively dumb. Palin’s grandbaby-daddy Levi is cute, but proves himself to be dumb every time he opens his mouth. Now, Cindy McCain… that’s sexy. I’d like to shake the cobwebs off that dusty corpse and… (Okay, I just threw up a little in my mouth).
jerekeys: Eewwwww. That thought oughta be vile enough to make it come out *both* ends…
NYC in April would require MUCH less travel time on my part….and even though I have a passport, NYC wouldn’t require any for the others. But I don’t know my way around NYC like I do Toronto. Hmm, this is a toughie.
jerekeys: just cause he’s dumb don’t make him unattractive. In fact some of the hottest guys I’ve been with have also been the dumbest. NOT that Im comlaining, mind you.
HUGS…
Polt: Dave S. isn’t THAT dumb.
Omigod. Awesome!!
Dont do it, Craig! Too many of the people on this site and are prone to impromptu threeways and orgies!
GoKitty: Umm…wouldn’t that give him a reason *to* do it…?
Besides, we would never plan something impromptu.
Hey, I have a map Polt. That’s all you need in NYC. Only thing is I’ll have a teen tagging along, not quite the same as the rest of the foot-loose and fancy free gang here. Toronto I’d be solo.
I think the main idea behind Joe the Plumber is that the tax plan discourages entrepreneurship. The point is that people invest in themselves and work hard in order to make more money, etc and a tax plan that taxes businesses more for making more money really inhibits economic growth. But that’s a bit too political for my digkv personality- I like to keep this account apolitical. My idea of political fun is this http://i34.tinypic.com/2hnvn5z.jpg see it’s funny and no one gets hurt!
Love the pic digkv!
Whenever I get stressed about my finances I think back to college.
In college I had a 13″ tv with a hanger crammed in the back of it. (so forcibly was the hanger crammed, that the tv was useless for regular coaxial cable) and I had to walk to the library to use the internet.
Now i have digital cable and dvr in two rooms and cable internet.
In college I would pay all of my bills and only have enough left over to go to dollar general and get bologna, cheese, white bread, and ramen noodles.
Now I at least have meat, vegetables, wheat bread, and potatoes.
In college didn’t have health insurance so when i slipped and cut my side on a rusty nail, I just heated up butter knife on my gas stove and cauterized the wound and then duck taped it with paper towel.
Now I call my doctor and get a prescription if I so much as sniffle.
Even at my poorest now, I’m way better off than I was.
Craig: AWESOME! I *love* the gifs, they are too freaking perfect. I also love the commentary. Well done sir.
Craiggers: I’m not sure, am I to be insulted there?
(I KID! I kid!)
GoKitty:Threeways and orgies? You’ve heard about my Toronto trips, haven;t you?
Dave S.:”Besides, we would never plan something impromptu.” Bwahahahaha, dude you slay me!
Tam: A teenager isn’t necessarily a deal breaker for me (see my response to GoKitty) depending on whether he’s a legal teenager or not and whether he is indeed a he and not a shee.
digkv:I reserve my political comments for MY blog, but I love the click thrus.
HUGS…
GoKitty: 3-ways are for other blogs, didn’t you read last week how the standard has been set for the puntabulous family with 4-ways?
Anyone hungry for Skyline?
So Joe, you’re hot (according to Craiggers), open-minded about sex AND rich? Sign me up!
HA! I’m not quite rich….Just no longer killing my own food.
Wow, killing your own food. How manly – swoons-. Seriously though, I wouldn’t know. For better or worse, I’ve led a relatively pampered life. I mean, my family isnt rich, but a comfortable middle class. I started having my own money way back in college with a grant (for research, the course itself was free, public university). Also inherited an apartment which I rented as a teenager. So, not rich either, but comfortable.
The butter knife story also leads me to think that he’s Rambo. Or perhaps RamJoe…which leads me think of something else entirely….
Polt: You kid? She is a kid. And a SHE to boot. LOL Way out of your interest range and totally illegal. I’m thinking about starting to make her wear potato sacks or maybe I’ll just lock her in the attic for a few years. Ack!
