I thought they wanted my money

You can’t get a Massachusetts state income tax form in this town for love or money. Believe me, I looked. I know the budget is tight, but not printing the tax forms is cutting off the state’s nose to spite its face. If they think this is going to get me to Telefile, they’re out of their minds.

So I printed out the non-Teleforms from the Dept. of Revenue site, and it turns out the state owes me ten big smackers. That’s nothing compared to what I owe the feds, but it’s nice to know that the state will be compensating me for the time I wasted hunting for tax forms today.

On the up side, while I was at the main library of the city of Boston (the capital of the state of Massachusetts), which had no Mass tax forms, I picked up a how-to-write-sci-fi book I hadn’t seen before and a copy of Weird Al’s Running with Scissors CD. Yes, there is a SECRET FILE on the Weird Al CD. I was hoping it was the “The Saga Begins” video, but instead it’s some interview or other.
