thesbian trees and the IRS in drag.

throwback Thursdays presents a 2 for one. Star of choice...Wesley Snipes in If White Man cant Jump then Black Men Cant Pay Taxes. (without Rosie Perez)

So apparently filing your taxes is a BIG THING. Like 3 years in prison, a big thing. Wesley apparently hasn't filed his taxes since....errrr 1998. And it has finally caught up to him. Yesterday he received a 3 year sentence, even after cutting the IRS a check for 5 mill on the spot.

"There is no secret formula that eliminates a person's tax obligations, nor are there any special exceptions," said the IRS spokes machine. "The majority of Americans pay their taxes timely and accurately. Those who willfully violate the law must be held accountable."

Ok IRS. Here is the deal. I understand the situation, But apparently, you are not fully aware of what Mr Snipes has done for America in the mean time. He has literally saved the world with his bare hands, has at least on three accounts (dont know what her does with his spare time) brought down demon night creatures with his Blade of fury and bloody vengeance, and most of all...he looks fierce in a heel.



*ummmmmmm, I use to love this movie as a kid. That's our little secret. 1995.

The best part about this is that Snipes' celebrity friends are really supporting him. Actors Denzel Washington,Woody Harrelson, television judges Joe Brown and Greg Mathis. They all have his back. Almighty Dnezel said, " he (Snipes) is like a tree -- a mighty oak ... Many who know him have witnessed the fruit of his labors, have sat in his shade and even been protected by his presence. I am proud of him, proud to call him a fellow thespian and most importantly, proud to call him a friend."

Lol...what? Ok Denzel. Are you sure your not dipping into the kool aid.
