Princess Celestia
Your tax form says "Filers with a deceased spouse are entitled to the benefits of a joint return for the fiscal year of death" In a dream last night, Princess Luna married me to the late Granny Pie.  This means I get (Standard Deduction x Fiscal Year Granny died = 25,000,000 bits) off the top of my taxes.  Quite the savings.   Thank Princess Luna for me.

But that's not why I'm writing.  I want to know "When do I get the benefits of Granny's return"? I miss her.
Your grateful student
Pinkie
P.S. Please get me out of here!
Pinkie said we get sick if we don't eat & claimed our food as a medical expense.
She said you said the other Elements were depending on her & claimed them as dependents
She said my mustache depends on me & claimed it as a dependent
Everyone says she no longer lives in reality, so she claimed moving expenses.
Twilight tried to help her file her taxes.  Now she just sits on the floor, staring at the wall, stroking her tail, & occasionally saying "Gollum"  I'm scared
Spike 

Dear Spike
There is no such thing as an Income Tax! The amount of arithmetic it would take is beyond comprehension, never mind being beyond accomplishing.  Besides, I would never punish my little Ponies for working harder (and thus earning more).  You should tell Twilight to relax and Stop sending me letters from Pinkie.

You both should know perfectly well that I simply create money whenever I need it.  It is part of what governments do.

Once again, Pinkie has been playing Silly Buggers.  You shouldn't play this with her -she is the World Champion, and FAR out of both your leagues.
