Coffers

Not coffee.  Coffers.  I visited the Jackson County, Missouri, tax assessment office this morning to get proof that I didn't owe them any property tax, so I could register my vehicle in Missouri now that I live here again, and I helped fill them up.  The coffers.  They found that I neglected to pay my property tax for the years 2001 and 2002. This was because I moved, and normally property tax is collected or verified when you register your car, which of course I did not do, because I registered it in Kansas. An oversight. My bad.

So, the tax was about $400, and the late fees and interest brought the total up to $1,800.

Your heard me.

Probably overflowing.  The coffers.

Yes, it took this to get me to do another blog post. But don't worry. I vowed to myself to refrain from doing Trump posts.

  1. Outrageous! But . . . now it's done, right? All paid off? Accounts zeroed? I hope so. Damn. Reminds me I have some yet to be determined debt that I have to take care of. Thanks a lot. I was busily blasting Trump and now this!

    Well, anyway. At least you did a blog post. I'd say that's worth $1800. Deal.

    1. Not a good way to get reintroduced to Jackson County, Missouri. But, yeah, I have documentation. I'm paid up. I thought it was interesting that to get my drivers license, I was required to bring my birth certificate, so, good thing I wasn't born in Hawaii.
