Parallel Universe Fred
The year was 1976 and the American people had just celebrated their 200th year of independence. A particular man named Fred had decided that that taxes were stupid. Fred decided not to pay his taxes, in fact he went as far as to refuse to believe that they existed. For if they did exist they would undoubtedly be mentally handicapped as far as mandatory government regulated forms were concerned. A month later Fred got a call from a bill collector. After greeting the man and learning of the nature of the phone call Fred simply stopped believing that the man actually existed. This approach worked perfectly well, for a while. A couple of weeks later two men in matching suits each holding a black briefcase with silver buckles. "Wow," Fred thought to himself, " I have never seen homosexual Mormons before, this should be interesting." Fred opened the door and began yelling at the men insisting that he had his own religion and was comfortable with his current life style. The men simply stood waiting. It was at this point that Fred realized that something strange was happening. He invited the men into his home. The men took a step over his threshold then proceeded to stand perfectly still staring blankly at the patch of wall directly in front of them . Fred was quite confused. Fred asked the men what they wanted. They replied in unison, " your taxes or your soul!" It hit Fred like a bag of bricks clobbering an elderly woman, THEY WERE FROM THE IRS! Fred promptly started attempting to stop believing in them even as they transformed into two horrendous demons right in front of his very eyes. The IRS demons started shooting fire in random directions engulfing Fred's favorite china set. Fred frantically redoubled his efforts to not believe in them. They slowly approached the cowering man and engulfed his soul and Fred was never seen again. But the truly tragic part of this story is that Fred's house was repossessed and sold at rock bottom prices. It was in a good neighborhood too!
