Spring Cleaning Tax Roundup: Ranching, Oil, Hobbies, Easements, and Endless Litigation
When I first started blogging, I would generally knock things out pretty quickly. I am somewhat amazed at the number of pieces I put out while I was still working and then touring the country. To be somewhat fair to my self, I will say that I didn’t dig as much in the early days. But really I think it is mainly me getting older. Attorney Heggestead notes that he is getting old in his email. From what I can make of his bio he is a few years older than I. I can’t resolve to hang on till the Stonehill story is complete, but as long as Mr. Heggestead is in I will be in, God willing.

To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant.
