For Form 4868 filers: Remember that taxpayers who (1) want the IRS to figure their tax or (2) are required by a court order to file by the 2024 standard due date of Monday, April 15, are excluded from eligibility for filing Form 4868.
"Don’t file Form 4868 if you want the IRS to figure your tax or you’re under a court order to file your return by the regular due date" (Form 4868, "General Instructions: Qualifying for the Extension," page 1).

For Form 4868 filers: Remember that fiscal year taxpayers are required to file Form 4868 in paper format. The other two filing options of electronic filing or making a full or partial electronic payment -- are not available to fiscal year taxpayers seeking the six-month extension on their Form 1040 or Form 1040-SR returns.

Thank you for the observation in an other wizzley comment box -- in answer to my previous question -- about using Mozilla Firefox to access artist attributions through the image face-wandering cursor.

The first in-text image, with artistic attribution to Arpad Schmidhammer (1857-1921), between the first and the second subheadings about the Grimm Red Riding Hood versions, has the bed curtains, the girl's dress and the hunter's clothing in green even as the grandmother has a light blue skirt, a light white top and a light yellow cap.

What might those colors symbolize?

Jesus was close to Mary Magdalen, but I have always thought that Jesus was only bodily male,but his personality combined masculine and feminine in equal amounts. Thus he would not have needed a wife. Will some people be horrified at what I say? Mary's role might have been best (female) friend.

All theories are tentative and nothing conclusive has been said. We really can only guess.

Barley was sold for beer brewing, wheat for cheap bread.

It seemed correct.

English Wiktionary accounts for the etymology of Herod as from the Greek Ἡρώδης (from Greek Ἥρᾱ ["Hera"] ᾠδή ["ode"])."

Does that sound correct?

Why might that family have been so-called?

Thank you!

Your comment below, in answer to my previous, same-day question, describes Irish crop-growers as "low quality wheat and barley" farmers.

What did their landlords do with "low quality" products?

The second Grimm version subheading describes the Wolf as dying at the hands of granddaughter and grandmother.

Does that death differ from the first-subheaded Grimm version?

Thank you!

Online sources appear to applaud the desiccated, droughty Huwaizah Marshes, UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2016, near the Iranian border intersection with southern Iraq.

Could that be -- per your comment below in answer to my previous question -- the "now desiccated valley which local people claim to be the site of Eden"?

British Egyptologist David Rohl contrastingly describes as likeliest Garden of Eden location, the lush Adji Chay valley, previously called Meidan ("enclosed court, walled garden”), of Armenia, northwestern Iran 10 miles from Tabriz, and Turkey.

Thank you!

It appears strange to me the Holy Friday absence of any proposed Holy Family of Jesus Christ's proposed making. St. Joseph did not attend because he died during the Egypt years of the Holy Family, correct? But Our Lady Mary did go there.

Does it not seem like any wife, any children had to have been there -- unless they hated Him (perish the thought of such negativity) -- alongside their respective proposed mother-in-law and paternal grandmother?

No such thing happened.

No specific moment can be singled out. Opinions coalesced during the early second millennium, but the exact number of sacramentsbwas fixed at the council of Trent.

Of course, the sandwich filling can augment the bacon with a variety of vegetable fillings. I do often take my bacon sandwiches toasted.

Thank you!

The transition from covenant to sacrament, from sacrament-less to sacrament-full status intrigues me.

What procedure made matrimony a sacrament? Was it papal initiative and papal pronouncement?
