ALERT: Internet Taxes Due Today! - Comments Page 4

Great and well done, thanks!

Are you the guy from Microsoft who called last week and wanted to save me from some invasive files that had been secretly been placed on my computer and only you could help me find those files?

I would like to bid on the online billing system to collect all of the Internet taxes. Where should I send my proposal?

Thanks for the laugh. I especially liked that the bills initials are GOTCHA! I just hope no one in our Congress sees it because those fools would think it was a good idea!

All funds should be sent to Lennay Kekua (Manti Te'o's fictitious dead girlfriend).

Could I just use you as proxy and send my money to you and let you handle it? All of this is sooo much trouble.

well written, lots of detail, and more than adequate clues.

You did such a detailed and believable job of this that you sucked me in completely. I read right by the GOTCHA, which you did.

yes, very well done!

Sorry Bob, but I went into this thinking of April Fools day. Good try though!

We going through so much political/bureaucratic/greedy corporation mobs nonsense that I believed in this until I remember about today date. Your April fool joke can give somebody a heart attack. I have my old nasty boss who I need to send it. The best joke ever! You are genius. Ple-a-se confirm that this is a joke!!!

I was a little worried for a while but the penny dropped before I got half way through: it's April the 1st. Ha ha!

I thought to myself, "I need a laugh, lets see what this is." I wasn't disappointed. Thanks for brightening my day.

That was fantastic. Shows great effort. Great job. I knew it was a joke the minute that "U.N. bureaucrats" was mentioned. U.N. bureaucrats can't enact international law, "delegates" can vote and the US has rejected it. Think of how this would be enforced, an impossibility. International law does not need to be observed by member nations. The US said no, thus it would not be enforced in the US.

But for all of you who fell for it, you folks are like the woman in the insurance commercial who said you can't put anything untrue on the Internet. Bob, please don't take this as an insult to you, but seriously folks, Is "Ask Bob" your only news source? Don't you think that would be headline news or some newsflash on all media if not both? Morning shows would be flooded by a panel of "experts".

I was a bit slow today, too. Then when I saw the acronym for G.O.T.C.H.A., I finally figured it out! I remembered that it is April Fool's Day. LOL! Thanks for today's article. You are so clever! :)

I had it spotted from the get-go, but it was very convincing. It'll be fun to prank a few people with this in the coming weeks.

Good one Bob :) I went in thinking April Fool's but with all the intricate detail I was almost getting a wee bit worried there for a sec. Until GOTCHA...lol...needed a good laugh today, thanks Bob. Just don't let any goverment officials see this...ssshhhh...our city water department just tacked on almost $20 a quarter to the water bill because they now charge a fee for the rain and snow that they estimate runs off the yard and goes down the sewer grate, so nothing would surprise me when it comes to government agencies picking our pockets.

Not funny, I don't it put past these "fairness" goofballs to try something like this. It might be a joke for now, but I'll bet their thinking about this kind of thing to make the rich USA on a more equal plane with poor countries. After all we all know the US didn't come by our wealth fairly, we stole it.

This April's Fool prank is only slightly more audacious than much of the official insanity spewing out of Washington DC.

Google Blue, Gotcha.... I'm beginning to wonder about you tech guys.... yours is the most detailed I think I've ever seen though, Bob. Pretty cool...
