If you -- as reader J. did -- call the Mississippi tax commission today (601-923-7000), you'll find that the office is closed " in observance of Robert E Lee's and Martin Luther King's birthdays."

In disbelief, I called that number. Sure enough. It's the mississippi tax commission, and they're closed today, for the reasons as stated above.

Don't believe me? Listen for yourself.
