>This is how my conversation with our local town tax department went:

>Me: "I don't have a bill for this quarter's taxes."
>Clerk: "They have not been sent out yet."
>Me: "Aren't they due on January 10th?"
>Clerk: "Yes."
>Me: "Can you tell me the amount so I cvan pay it?"
>Clerk: "No. You can't pay without the bill."
>Me: "When will bills be sent?"
>Clerk: "later this month."
>Me: "Will there be a late fee."
>Clerk:" Of course. All the taxes will be paid late because we sent 
>the bills out late. The law says we must charge a late fee if they 
>are paid late."
>Me: "Who made that law".
>Clerk: "We did."

>There really should be a license people need before they are allowed to breed!
