This one comes courtesy of humorist Dave Barry.

"I am thinking of such helpful IRS innovations as the Wrong Answer Hotline where, if you're having trouble understanding a section of the IRS Secret Tax Code, all you have to do is call the IRS Taxpayer Assistance Program, and in a matter of seconds, thanks to computerized electronics, you are placed on hold for several hours before finally being connected to trained IRS personnel dispensing tax advice that is statistically no more likely to be correct than if you asked Buster the Wonder Horse to indicate the answer by stomping it in the dirt."

"No problem is so big or so complicated it cannot be run away from." -- Charles Schultz in Peanuts comic strip
