paying taxes and being clever
+1 points for the Post Office, it was Efficiency Central for all the late filers, like me. I have never been in and out of the post office quicker.
-1 points to the Georgia Department of Revenue. What’s up with a 500-ES Estimated Tax payment form that just plain doesn’t work (see the download here — 2005_forms?). That’s right, it doesn’t even have the ability to select 2007-Q1 on the form. Isn’t that just, ummm, retarded? It really makes me start to wonder how many people actually don’t even bother to pay, or just don’t don’t even care. Judging by those late-night TV Ads: “do you owe the government lots of money….?” — probably a lot.
+10 points for my accountant who rules by the way. I’d totally refer you, but I’m keeping him all to myself and will hire him soon to expand globally (and set up a really sweet severance package for me quite a few years down the line).
Happy Tax Day everybody!
