Just a few days ago I sent off the check to the IRS for the amount I was charged for "late filing", for God's sake. And now, I am again sending off my tax return, but this time I owe no money. This does not mean I might not be charged a penalty for late filing if the thing once more gets lost in the shuffle.
I sent a letter to the new head of the Treasury Department, with no hope of it eliciting a response--nothing I have every written to a government official has gotten a response except for a letter to Johnson about a million years ago, and that probably put me on some kind of FBI screwball list. Oh well, even that must mean something!
I'm not willing to get into a sarcasm battle with the IRS because they don't answer in kind, they just charge you something. This time I was sarcastic silently--I sent my tax return in a bubble envelope with "Fragil, Handle with Care" printed on it. You think maybe that will get me into trouble? Just in case they should think some kook had sent a package of poop or another resentful item, I added on the envelope that the contents were only paper.
On the other hand, I may get into trouble with the Secretary of the Treasury himself since I was polite but pissed; if you don't hear from me again, it could mean I've been arrested or am in hiding at the quinta.
