Californian columnist Valerie Schultz came clean on something she did while holding a recent garage sale: She slapped an "annoyance tax" on people who, well, annoyed her.  It's safe to say she's not alone in this regard, whether the irritation from shoppers comes from a person's politics (Valerie's case), behavior, attitude or whatever. I like that she's come up with a catchy phrase for the practice.  What do you think? Have you ever charged an "annoyance tax"...

Ran across this classified ad for a pirate's costume and it got me thinking about memorable Halloween costumes.  Whether it was as a kid or adult, what's been your most memorable costume?
