I had occasion to visit the Dekalb County, Georgia, Tax Commissioner web site:
http://web.co.dekalb.ga.us/TaxCommissioner/tc-home.html
On the top right there is a set of Quick Links to Things People Often
Do in Dekalb county. It is a pull down box, labeled "I WANT TO:"
Click on it, and you find a revealing set of choices, including:
REGISTER TO VOTE
PAY MY WATER BILL . . .
FILE A RESTRAINING ORDER
REPORT A LOOSE DOG
GET TRAFFIC CITATION INFO
APPLY FOR A PISTOL LICENSE
GET A MARRIAGE LICENSE
FILE FOR A DIVORCE . . .
PAY MY TAXES
It add up to a Country Western ballad or an episode of "Law & Order."
Note that paying taxes is the last thing on people's minds when they
contact the Tax Commissioner.
