Spare Change

Sung to the Tune of Tax Man!

Posted by Bryan

I just finished my 2005 taxes.

Did it myself, just like every year since 1987, when I made $600 mowing lawns and painting crime scenes at the apartment complex my mom managed.

Seriously.

And as an accountant, I make an excellent minister.

I get all nervous about this...I'm terribly intimidated by the IRS. I have our meager collection of receipts for every year since we've been married.

I just dread the possibility of the word that I dare not mention that starts with A and rhymes with plaudits, and means almost certainly the opposite.

I have one stock joke that I have run totally into the ground, and I profusely apologize...it has something to do with the ease of me doing my own tasks because of nuthin from nuthin leaves nuthin....

I know, I know. Pathetic. On that basis alone I should expect a knock on the door, asking me to bring all my records.
