For some reason, this hit my funny bone this morning

Joan, don't you know that if clothes hang in a closet long enough they shrink?

Just had a client who missed the deadline come by and have me help him fill out a check for estimated tax. For 2015. He did not mention when he'd be able to get his tax info in. He's been busy. (So busy).

I had one leave her info in the mailbox this morning. I really don't mind. Better now than when I'm covered up. I'm here at the office four days a week with year round folks. Might as well not be bored. It does amaze me that they don't seem concerned about deadlines at all.

I'm so ugly, my dog uses me to get other dogs

Ever think of telling him to get his ship out of your office ?

I still have a guy from whom I am waiting to get info for the 1099-MISC's for January 2016 (for the 2015 tax year). He gave me the 2014 info this past May.

Yeah, but then I think about my daughter's tuition for grad school, and I decide to wait till I'm rich as ship to do that. Plus, he is a real help in spreading the ship throughout the year. Expanding they tax year even. Good ship.

Everything will be in ship shape, I'm sure.

Once he gets his ship together, the fun will begin.

That's how I get my incentive....someday I'll fit into those elephant bells with the 30" waist. Can only wear them on one day, Halloween. Better stop eating today...or last month.

E-Services is putting in a new, more secure service that was targeted for 24 October but has been postponed. We will have to re-authenticate ourselves again with stricter info.

Yeah...But....Wouldn't that be wrong?...............

This stinks, no wonder I cannot access QB online today.

My e-services log in no longer works. When I ask for a new password, it requires I provide it with my old password because obviously that's normal. edit: trying a few minutes later again to log in and it says an error occurred and I should try again later. Great. e-services has ALWAYS been a problem for me. They voided me out several times for no apparent reason and then all of a sudden I was fully back in the system. Can't figure them out at all.

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Makes be want to give her a hug, then she'll probably bite me, been there, done that.

The IRS has announced that this changeover has been delayed due to unspecified problems for an unknown period of time. After all how can you know the unknowable ?

Jack, I will do the same if you tell me how.

The Auto-Save function, which can be set for every 5 minutes, has not been functional since the train-wreck of 2012. Auto-backup (a different function) works each time you close the file you are working on. I have complained at least a hundred times to tech support and sales about the auto-save not working, to absolutely no avail. Going forward, train yourself to click the save button every 5 minutes or so. If the 2016 program does not have this corrected, I will set my Outlook program to send a complaint e-mail every hour until it is corrected.

Thanks, Elrod. Also, and sorta related, if you become an EA (and maybe if you renew, I don't know) you need to login to your PTIN account and update your credentials.
