The problem for the Acklins is that they attempted to hide some of those earnings from the Internal Revenue Service. It turns out that wasn't such a good idea.
This week the office of the United State Attorney, District of Kansas announced that the Acklins -- who had pleaded guilty to charges of filing false federal tax returns last March -- were sentenced to five years' probation and 500 hours of community service. The couple was also ordered to pay restitution in the amount of $106,953.
The charges stem from tax returns filed in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006. The indictment stated that in 2006, for example, the Acklins reported gross business receipts of $193,785 when the actual gross receipts were $1.1 million.

You're trying too hard, doll. And I would have probably been thrilled in high school if someone had called me "FAT" since I was so ridiculously skinny. "TWIGGY" was more like it.

"FAT"ruzza has been his nickname for a while now...he never minded in high school when we called him that or "Sloppy Joe"...Joe?

We leave these comment threads open so people can discuss and debate the content, not lob childish, incoherent and wholly unoriginal attacks at their fellow human. I believe this is "Fatruzza" comment number three or four; let's say we make it the last, huh?
