Well, that could have been worse. I owed $80 to da Fed and got a $46 refund from CA state. *shrugs*

Additional: no, it doesn't say "Tod and Steven", although I've often been amused that "Tod", which in German means "death", is also an English folk name for "fox", as in the name "Todhunter". It says Sturm und Drang. Err, Donder und Blitzen. Um, that is, death and taxes.

Additional additional: Yeah, Donder and Blitzen. Reindeer named "Thunder" and "Lightning". Pretty cool compared to "Rudolph", I think.

Hmm...

The Chinese Fox spirit, the Huli Jing, is associated with death, in that it is sometimes the ghost of a dead woman.

Some people say this has to do with foxes making dens in burial sites.

Random note.

That's why I'm so adamant in the "Donder" vs "Donner" debate.
