Yesterday I had the privilege of dealing with two separate gov't agencies. The first came in the form of a phone call requesting information that quite frankly was none of their business but I was civil and answered their questions until they got to one particular question that I had no clue on what it meant. I asked for clarification and the girl told me that she didn't know what it meant either and others in her group had no clue what it meant either and they were probably going to remove it from the form once they formed a panel to discuss the issue to see if anyone saw any reason not to remove it. :???:
My second wonderful experience came in the mail and had to do with some government forms. A while back I requested some application forms and about six weeks later I received them in the mail. I began filling them out but stopped when it got to the address part and felt I best check with 911 to be sure the physical address hasn't been changed again. (since 9-11 our addresses have been changed 3 times. This makes me feel much safer cause if I don't know where I am how could a terrorist ever find me? But then again when it comes to business cards, stationary and other reprinted forms this can get expensive but heh this is a small cost for freedom right?) Anyhow, I had mailed these forms out about two weeks ago and was notified in the mail yesterday that I had filled out outdated forms. This is definitely my error cause I didn't specifically ask them for the up to date forms so I guess they just assumed I wanted the outdated forms. Anyhow, I began filling out the new set of forms and they looked exactly like what I had filled out before except for one little change. Guess what it was?

"Are you a legal resident of the USA?" SOB, it ain't like my name is Jesus or Carlos or anything like that. Besides, if I were an illegal alien what do you think I would check? Oh well, like a good little boy I filled out the forms AGAIN and checked the little box assuring them that I wasn't some illegal alien so they can lay claim on some report to congress that they checked X number of people for immigration status. Well it only is costing me some time which I consider money so to make up for lost time I guess I'll have to just not report the sale of a few calves this year. I really hate doing that cause I'd really like to see every "being" in the USA be supplied with a cell phone just like the constitution promises.
