IRS Letter

There was a man who computed his taxes for 1997 & found that he owed $3407.
He packaged up his payment & included this letter:

Dear IRS:


Enclosed is my 1997 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 then 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. I just saw an article about the Pentagon and
"screwdrivers."

Sincerely,

I. Gettook Everyear
