Letter to IRS
Dear Internal Revenue Service:
Enclosed you will find my 2005 tax return showing that I owe  $3,407.00 in taxes. Please note the attached article from the USA Today newspaper; dated 12 November, wherein you will see the Pentagon (Department of Defense) is paying $171.50 per hammer and NASA has paid $600.00 per toilet seat.I am enclosing four (4) toilet seats (valued @ $2,400) and six (6) hammers valued @ $1,029), which I secured at Home Depot, bringing my total remittance to $3,429.00. Please apply the overpayment of $22.00 to the "Presidential Election Fund," as noted on my return. You can do this inexpensively by sending them one (1) 1.5" Phillips Head screw (see aforementioned article from USA Today newspaper detailing how H.U.D. pays $22.00 each for 1.5" Phillips Head Screws). One screw is enclosed for your convenience. It has been a pleasure to pay my tax bill this year, and I look forward to paying it again next year.  http://www.referencetable.net/module...rticle&sid=566 |

I'd be happy to just be able to pay what I owe online via credit card without having to pay some service a fee.

I remember once hearing about (not sure if it was an urban legend) a guy who sent in his income tax forms with payment in the form of a bank draft (check) written on the back of a shirt. The IRS was not amused.
