My husband e-mailed me this, thought you might get a kick out of it.

WHAT A TAX RETURN!
- Submitted by Don Ferris
____________________________________
There was a man who computed his taxes for 1998 and
discovered that he owed $3407. He packaged up his
payment and included this letter:


Dear IRS:

Enclosed is my 1998 Tax Return & payment. Please take note of
the attached article from the USA Today newspaper. In the
article, you will see that the Pentagon is paying $171.50
for hammers and NASA has paid $600.00 for a toilet seat.

Please find enclosed four toilet seats (value $2400) and
six hammers (value $1029). This brings my total payment to
$3429.00. Please note the overpayment of $22.00 and apply
it to the "Presidential Election Fund," as noted on my return.
Might I suggest you the send the above mentioned fund a "1.5
inch screw." (See attached article...HUD paid $22.00 for a
1.5 inch Phillips Head Screw.)

It has been a pleasure to pay my tax bill this year, and I
look forward to paying it again next year.

Sincerely,

A satisfied taxpayer
