Pumps' Perplexities

Considering that it is a cloudy Tuesday, there should have
been some signs of life in an enclosed mall today...But there
was not...The mall was dead...And worse it was noticed by
everyone, including the stores' employees...

While gasoline may cost a little these days, I do not think
that was the main reason for the lack of patronage...
I think it was the date on the calendar...After all it is the
12th of April and it is only three more days to the 15th of
April...

It is major Income Tax Time...The majority of the people
do not have the money because they just had to sent it
with their Tax Return or they have only three days left
to save it up and then send it with their Tax Return...

I have always been under the opinion that between the
15th of March and the 15th of April the flow of moneys
comes to a grinding halt...For some reason the flow
resumes after the 1st of May...

Cash flow is cash flow and this time of the year your
money is made out of molasses, not paper and zinc...
