I don't think Federal Government employees should have to pay federal income tax on their pensions when they retire. That's because we've already contributed so much to the country.

For example, take me. For over twenty five years, I arrived at my desk early every day, and thought so feverishly thoughout the day that in late afternoon my head would heat up and my scalp would be burning. And now I've got a bald spot on top of my head - hair follicle burnout. I rest my case.

How about free Rogaine for former civil servents? Or maybe a tax deduction?

Dad, bald since his early 20s, always says "grass doesnt' grow on a busy street." But someone would always mutter, "Doesn't grow in concrete, either."

Or should that be fingers? Unless she tounge-typed....
