Dirty Ball Game

The 31st of March.

Far more scary for Indian taxpayers than the Ides of March.

Ugh!

Cups of coffee consumed by department heads and their accountants must've run into a few hundred gallons.

I opened the door to somebody's work cabin

the yesterday only to be attacked by poisonous fumes.

the air was so thick with cigarette smoke you could cut it with a butter kinfe.

He was drawing hard on the coffin nails as he pored through figures, and more figures [sadly not the kind that exercises your eyeballs and gives other body parts a pleasant sensation - these figures seemd to give the poor man an affliction in in the general area that made contact with his state-of-the-art office chair!]

Filing income tax returns is seriously injurious to health.

It's time they put out a statutory warning .

On the other hand, NOT filling them out leads to even greater tribulations.

And maybe even MORE sharp shooting pains where the Indian Revenue Service grabs you if you don't pay up.

And that's a dirty ball game!
