Linnaeus' Legacy No. 15: Sorting it all out


This is my favorite web carnival, and this is the best version of it yet, owing to the outstanding submission we have this month!

Tax Carnival #45: Happy New Tax Year!


So how's your 2009 been so far? Mine's been crazy, but you probably already figured that out since this Carnival is going up in the early evening instead of the planned morning posting. Yeah, the beginning a new year is a wondrous thing in the tax world. It requires dexterity and balance, as we pull all of 2008's tax material together so that we can file those returns (or extensions) by April 15.
