Taxman: (furiously) Blasphemous fool! A High Cardinal of the Tax Code doesn't tell a worthless, pathetic, taxpaying citizen like yourself what YOU owe! That would be like...like...

Hero: (cautiously) ...like every other bill I've ever paid my entire life?

Taxman: (victoriously) EXACTLY! What do you think this is, the Telephone Company?!?

Hero: (under-his-breath-ly) At least those ****ers eventually answer when I call.

Taxman: (even more furiously) WHAT DID YOU SAY?!?

Hero: (straight-face-ed-ly) ...Who, me?...What?...What did I say?

Taxman: (confuse-ed-ly) ...er...Nevermind! Now, PAY UP!

Hero: (perspiring-ly) OK, let's see...add line 34 to line 13...subtract the square root from line 63b of Form 432-042c...divide by the gross domestic product of the south asian country that shares the most letters with your last name...

Taxman: (impatiently) Hurry up!

Hero: (impatiently) Almost there! Alright, carry the 2, drop the remainder...and done! Who do I make the check out to?

Taxman: (patiently) A...I...G. In the memo field, write, "Bonus for trying REALLY hard."

Hero: (exhausted-ly) Will do. Alright, who's next?

State Taxman: (anxiously) Me first!

Regional Taxman: (no, I'm not making this up) No, me!

City Taxman: (still not making this up) But I'm the most unjustified!

Hero: (stales 3X)

C,
Very good stuff.
