  The IRS also has a somewhat funny side, probably an unintentional one.

  I recently received a 3-paged letter from the IRS. It was single-spaced. And obviously generated by a computer with minimal human input.

  Translating the governmentspeak into English took me near to half a day! But, I think I know what the letter was trying to tell me.
