I'm not American so I thought the answer would be more related to SQL Server!!!!!
:crazy:

Being an Aussie, I found this US based question harder than most of the others! Nailed it 🙂

A bit unfair for us none Americans! (But I got it right by elimination!)
Anyway, who in their right mind would connect Tax to humour! 😛

Of course it isn't this year, taxes are due on April 18th...
From: http://www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/0,,id=233910,00.html
Taxpayers will have until Monday, April 18 to file their 2010 tax returns and pay any tax due because Emancipation Day, a holiday observed in the District of Columbia, falls this year on Friday, April 15. By law, District of Columbia holidays impact tax deadlines in the same way that federal holidays do; therefore, all taxpayers will have three extra days to file this year. Taxpayers requesting an extension will have until Oct. 17 to file their 2010 tax returns
Darn special holidays....

Here in Belgium we still have about 2,5 months for our taxes. Which are insanely high (about 45% of our wages go to taxes).
But I'm building a house, so I'll get some money back :w00t:
edit: oh yeah, thanks for the 4 easy points (if you've read the editorial)

I was doubtful while answering this question as Tax Day has been extended to April 18 this year.
However, all the rest of the options were not good enough to be selected.

I think the clue here was that he mentioned what day it was in his editorial for the day! 🙂

First thing I read is the editorial, so thanks for the easy points Steve.

tax day is 18 April in 2011, so today is not tax day.

Living in the UK was sorely tempted to go for the SQL Server answer, but couldn't find the definite date of release through Google... so went to eliminate the rest and couldn't eliminate the Tax Day... whew! Four points yummy! ...makes me feel better after being April fooled!
Funny, that it's not actually Tax day this year though 😀

I'm English, and I pay enough tax already without having to think of paying for BO, thanks. (Colour, licence, cancelled, marvellous, manoeuvre, centre, harbour, paediatrics, theatre, aesthetics, et cetera and now tax day! Huh).

Although this year the question does not make sense since the day taxes are due is the 18th because of the delay and weekend.
