Cr@p I hate taxes!
« on: 16 October 2006, 16:37:48 »
Pain in my *^%%$ US tax law  >:(  Been working on this for days, going back and forth with accountant in US.  Has to go out today.  Finally got it ready, ran out of paper for printer.  Go get more paper, print cartridge croaks!  Had to run to PC World and cancel afternoon appointment.  Had to reinstall printer to get it to work right converting letter size to A4.  It was working fine yesterday?!

Printing now.  If I can just hold off on the beer until I get this sent . . . would be bad to get kicked out of the Post Office for drunk & disorderly when need to send something this important  ::)

We call it "Sod's law" Theo. Sounds like a real bummer :(

I have seen the US tax return forms, they come with a 10mm thick book!

I hardly use my printer, went to print something important last week & couldn't, it was clogged.
Used the head cleaning facility a couple of dozen times & still no good & used up two ink cartridges in the process!
Think it'll be cheaper buying a new printer! :-/
So I emailed it to myself at work & printed it there. :)

A little tip that may work sometimes on inkjets that cartridges have dried, due to little use....a damp cloth or damp tissue wiped on the paper end....helps to unblock them and bring them back to life  ;)
