    Exploding head.

    Sometimes I think that's what's going to happen if I have to cram just one more scrap of information in there.

    Couple of laughable incidents:

    A lady came in and said "I've just got to get this filed (a W-2) and get these taxes off my mind." I'm thinking (but not saying) "Yes, yes; you have my deepest sympathy, you boob."

    Another guy; I need Schedule C auto details for his yard service and ask "What kind of truck do you have?" Gives me a surprised look and says "Why, Bart; it's that same old Chevrolet that I've always drove."

    The urge to kill surfaces -- wonder if it'd be possible to shoot him out of that chair and plead temporary insanity? If the judge had ever done taxes, surely he'd understand.

    Another possible answer to her:
    "I can understand why you want to get these taxes off your mind.
    Being as tiny as it is, I'm sure it can't bear much weight."
