Not Really the IRS

I keep a sign on my desk to inform all those who enter my office that they have no hope. One day, when my real business cards ran out, well, these just seem to fit right in there....

'Satan' desk nameplate

I actually have my real name on my office door, and the desk plaque was made in my lab using a chemical marking laser. (And no, I'm not really an IRS agent...too terrifying.)

—James, California

When I thanked James for sending the story, I said, "I notice that you disclaim being an IRS agent, but didn't disclaim being Satan!"

James replied: "I have to make sure people understand I am not truly evil. Satan is a concept, IRS is for real!" Good point! -rc
