Dear Internal Revenue Service:
While I sincerely appreciate your formal invitation to participate in your annual Throwing-Good-Money-After-Bad fundraising kickoff on April 15th, I respectfully decline.
According to IRS Code Section: Exemptions to the Exception; Exemption Regulation HH; Paragraph VII; Subparagraph XVI as superceded by Paragraph VII as amended in Section AB Paragraph 2 (the fine print):
Exemption will be granted for any valid excuse including, but not limited to, participation in the April A to Z Challenge as long as said participation is limited solely to “the pure joy of writing”.
Be advised: At least 1,000 bloggers are eligible to claim this exemption. Please budget accordingly!
Yours Truly,
Sammy Detroit

Ugh. You tell ’em Sammy!
Too bloody right. (she said in her British accent)
Hope you can get this exemption approved!
🙂 A girl’s gotta try!
LOL, I strongly approve of this message.
With “insanity” in your name, I bet Washington listens to you!
Oh, how I wish it were true!

Co-hosts get a double tax exemption, I think!!
