I went to the Carson City post office yesterday, in a slight lull in the madness that has been work. I had approached the post office in Reno the pervious night (9/16/2002) - with the intention to mail my quarterly federal income tax. When I arrived at the Reno post office at 9:30 pm, I realized I had no return address on my tax return envolope. Furthermore, I realized I had no address - besides a hotel I leave every week. Hmmm.... I retreated to consider my options.

Here's the dilemma - 8.25% California state tax. I live in Nevada right now, and will for the next several months. I don't have a home in California - and therefore don't want to pay the taxes - but there is no official way to transfer out of state residency into migratory/homeless status. Ed Pinto (my accountant) said I had to at least an address/drivers license to transfer... I figured the best I could come up with is a PO box. The guy at the counter seemed surprised when he asked for my address and I said I don't have one... suggested write "homeless" in the address line and I did.

I want to find out if I can register a Nevada drivers license as a homeless person? I doubt it...maybe I'll take this up as a cause.

Go ahead and write me a letter - though I'm not planning on checking the box for a long time: PO Box 20170 Carson City, NV (not sure of the zip code)
