Default Hi! I'm from the IRS, and I'm here to help.

Got one of those dreaded letters from the IRS today. Took a loooong time before deciding to open it. Problem with the year 2000. Beads of sweat glistening on my forehead. Then ... It seems we withheld too much Social Security tax from you. Here it is, with interest. A check for $3500. :o :o :o WOOOOHOOOO!!! :o :o :o Anybody want to help me spend it?

I guess we no longer need to salt the slug. Now you can have yourself gilded.

Too much beer? I don't get it. Yes, of course! Come to Vegas with us. We're throwing a huge After Exam bash in Vegas this year. The drinks are free, the food is cheap, and the gambling is aplenty!

Too much beer?

You may recall that the method I used to get 42 out of the moderator mode involved the old saucer of beer, in which slugs tend to drown.


But don't worry, TDA, you are unlikely to drown. Drink up!
