Running Taxes

Many returns are sent by faxes
Declaring our earnings for taxes
When they don't work it out
Please give me a shout
Next time I'll send them some laxatives

I'd hate to have to use the restroom at tax headquarters when the laxatives arrive, James. Funny limerick! Congratulations on your win. The competition was very strong, so take pride in your accomplishment! Love, Carolyn
