24/7 DIARY ENTRY
 
Dear Diary
April 12  
  Great response time by the IRS.  Today was "get the taxes done" day and I nearly completed my mission.  It feels good getting them done so far in advance; a weight is nearly lifted.  I had a few questions for the Internal Revenue Service, so I cruised over to their website.  It has a kind of nifty look on the homepage.  Unfortunately, the answers to my questions were not online, so I called the listed toll free telephone number.  One of my questions fell into the category of being handled by a "call back service;" I was told that I would get a reply to my question via telephone within 48 hours, and an email response would be sent as a backup.  To my surprise and delight, I received a call back in less than one hour.  Perhaps, the IRS is the Kozmo of US Government agencies?  In addition, the IRS service assistant took me through an entire tax form, line by line, with a pleasant mood and patience. That's Brucie territory in my book.

I wish I had similar pleasantries to extol upon CVS; my order has not arrived yet (the order was placed on April 2).  Today, however, I received an email informing me that my order has just been shipped.  Sorry CVS, Noosie city.

The Internet Shopping 24/7 Project Report version 1.0 is complete and it covers the time period of early September 1999 to late March 2000.  It is a PDF file and Adobe's Acrobat Reader (available for free) is required for viewing it.  The report is optimized for viewing in version 4.05.  If you have version 3.0, you might consider upgrading to version 4.05 because it has a search feature and text looks very crisp in it.

1) If you do not have Adobe Acrobat Reader version 4.05, then click here or on 
    this  and then follow the three simple steps (you might need to
   scroll down a little bit when you get there in order to see the 3 steps).

2) Once you have the Adobe Acrobat Reader, click here and the Internet Shopping 24/7 
     Project Report v1.0 will open.  You can save it to disk if desired.
