Happy Taxgiving Day! Today is the day that the government wants your money.

Did you know, over 35 million taxpayers will wait until today to file?

Here are some wonderful hints to help you with your taxes.

Do you need extra time? You still need to file your extension today but you need a good reason.

Here are some reasons you should definitely not use:

5) Got really bad paper cut from 1040 form. Passed out for a couple of days.

4) Trying to get the lipstick kiss on the signature line just right. No, I'm not trying to kiss any particular part of the body.

3) H. Block finished on time, but R. Block was really, really slow.

2) Still waiting to hear from Publisher's Clearinghouse. I know I'll hear from them this year, I can feel it.

1) Try to explain to the IRS that the longer they wait, the more excited they'll be when they finally get it. After all, anticipation is half the fun....isn't it?

As an American, I'm happy to pay taxes. I mean, I could also be just as happy paying half of it. Just saying.
