Well, here it is. Tax day. The one day a year where I turn into a foaming-at-the-mouth Libertarian.

Being moderately involved in show business - and moderately involved in a technology business where all the technology seems to be allergic to me - my income has basically been flatlined since the September 11 attacks. This year, my tax bill was 7.2 percent higher than last year.

That's what I call tax relief for all Americans. Way to go.

I'm sure it's a coincidence that the U.S. tax deadline falls on the day the Titanic famously sunk off Newfoundland.
