OT: Taxes

I should have hired somebody to do this like I have every year since I started making decent money.  But I didn't, and I want to watch baseball (priorities, man) so I had to file an extension.

Went to IRS website and was directed to get form blah blah blah, and when I went to fill it out it seemed like I needed to have my taxes done before I could complete it.

Fail. 

So I dug around the Google.  Turns out Turbo Tax will e-file an extension for you.  I followed the link and got in there, and at first it was almost as crazy as the IRS form.  Did manage to complete it, but then it only gave me an option to print and mail it to Austin.  Well, I don't have any stamps and live in the ghetto so that's no good.  Would rather not deal with it tomorrow, ya know?

But after some more digging on the Turbo Tax site it turns out that they DO have an option to e-file an extension and it required all of about thirty seconds of time.  So as a public service to my fellow Rangers fans, I am providing this invaluable link in case you're in a similar situation or whatever. 

So they'll do that for you and for free, and now you can hire someone who knows what they're doing to prepare your taxes.  Thanks, TurboTax!  I may even use them, who knows.  Any opinions on that?
