Today is National Voter Registration Day. In today’s day and age it is more important that ever to take part in elections regardless of where you fall on the political spectrum. There are important choices to be made on the local, state, and federal levels. Registering to vote and voting are easy to do. There really is no excuse not to.

Let's give our favorite accountant a proper take off into the final day of tax season!!!

His personal Keluber driver threatened to sing "The Final Countdown" on the ride to the office, but instead went with an ultimate (wordless!) anthem song.

To Michael Grindlay, our favorite tax Maverick.... today is the last day the pattern is full.
