Be careful what you ask for

A couple in Chimacum, Washington, were trying to fix a problem with their 2003 taxes, so they asked the IRS to send them a copy of the 2003 1040 instructions.

What they got instead was 24,000 copies of the 2005 1040 instructions. And two days later, UPS had another 24,000 copies to deliver to them, but thankfully caught it at the warehouse.

Oh, and the boxes were addressed to "Chimacum, DC."

Your tax dollars at work.
