I wrote/mailed tax checks today...

The problem is that politicians, no matter what side of the aisle, fix every problem by spending more money. (I know there are a few exceptions, but very few).

It is those "very few" I seek out and support.

The IRS is one of the few reasons I keep a checkbook. 

Taxes are taxes wherever one lives, that said cheques still must be 

an American thing, living in Canada it must be at least 25 years since 

I last had a cheque book every thing being electronic.

"Fix every problem"?? I must have missed that on the evening news.

totem395,

technically, our bill in the States, isn't due until this Monday, 18th. While the checkbook has been a thing of past for awhile now, it's useful for making certain payments. 

It also is a good refresher for actual handwriting. It's a challenge to complete a sentence in proper cursive(a dead skill now)
