Well, it's over. Tax season officially ended yesterday, as thousands of Americans dropped their 1040s in the mailbox and kissed significant portions of their income goodbye.

Picture this: starving pop-artists barely scraping by in a world that has cruelly deprived them of their gaudy chains, private Leer jets, limousine caravans and designer outfits.
