Praise Jah Jah Molesworth . Ya mon, and in 1971 when my Loto number
was 52 I got that letter: "you are herby order to report to the
Portland Induction Center for your Pre Induction physical.

Quick.......... Send $15 bucks and become a Priest of the Universal Life
Church. Ya, that's the ticket....! I even had a card! My Selective
Service Draft Board laughed at the card and me.

Then 1982, Vance my dive supervisor at Ocean-Tec Diving Contractors
had a "church" in Morgan City La. Of course we took communion every
chance we were on the beach. Even had a band. They were called The
Penetrators. Vance ran into a little problem with the IRS. Even though
he had a church and a congregation of the willing the IRS just did not
buy it. But by then he owed thousands in back taxes, penalties, fines.
Praise Jah Jah !! Ya mon, we be jammin...give praise to Jah and pass the
ganja mon

These half baked attempts to skirt the law's intent are so painfully
obvious. You can not say on one hand: 1) im a coffee company doing
commerce and list phone and address in TX, then say on the other hand
2) Im just a tourist buying 10,000 pounds of coffee for personal use
and going to sail it back home cause it mine im exempt form
everything. But the best is to spread the whole scam on the web!?!
