A basement electrical fire at the IRS Headquarters on Constitution Avenue sent about 4,000 out of the building and home for the day. The building apparently filled with smoke around 9:30 this morning, but no injuries have been reported, and the fire is currently under investigation. Should arson emerge as a possibility, it is expected that everyone in the country will be named a suspect.

And in possibly the most optimistic statement ever made, an IRS spokesperson said that, “Some employees will work from their homes today.”
