Snipes plan to rejoin the mainstream of American film


I used to enjoy WS work, an entertaining action film star.

But ever since he went into battle with the IRS, its been a never ending stream, seemingly a movie each montha, all filmed in Europe or Asia, with his profits mailed to the Wesley Snipes child od God foundation, on the isle of Wesley, in Fantasyland.

Snipes joins the long list of entertainers that have bought into a "tax advisors" plan, vaguely reminiscent of Steve Martins old routine......"YOU TOO, CAN BE A MILLIONAIRE AND NOT PAY TAXES."

Two steps.

1. GET THE MILLION DOLLARS
2. When the IRS comes for their money.......you say "WELL EXCUSE ME!".........then if pushed, "I FORGOT!!!"


WESLEY, WHEN YOU ARE OLD, LOOKING BACK ON YOUR LIST OF MOVIES......I SWEAR, YOUR 1ST THOUGHT WILL BE ^&*))( IRS.

Heres another movie reference, a lock solid plan, for how you can resolve your legal problems. One I swear will completely wipe your slate clean, (dollar amounts adjusted for inflation, of course)

Your salvation COMES FROM "NORTH BY NORTHWEST. ROT, INITIALS OF AD EXEC ROGER THORNTON, WHO STUMBLES INTO INTERNATIONAL INTRIGUE, AND WHEN THE BAD GUYS TRY TO KILL HIM, HE ELUDES THEM AND GETS ARRESTED. HIS MOTHER OFFERS HIS SOLUTION, AND I BELIEVE IT WOULD SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM AS WELL. MOMS ADVICE........"OH ROGER PAY THE 2 DOLLARS."

Yep, DUI was $2 in 1940. Tax evasion (if it wasn't part of a rico investigation) was $3.

Wesley, your window for believable action hero, age wise, will close soon. You can continue turning out tripe, while dodging the tax boys. Or sue for peace, pay the $3 (its a metaphor) or whatever and get back into main stream movies, and have a handful of classics to feel good about.

My $ 0.02, anyway

Bon chance, Wesley
