On September 28, 1912, the publication of William Christopher Handy’s “Memphis Blues” changed the course of American popular song. Handy introduced an African-American folk tradition, the blues, into mainstream music. By the 1960s, the blues sound had significantly influenced the development of jazz and rock and roll, quintessential American musical forms. Taxes are all about […]
Dear Family, Looking for a heading for this week’s issue, since tonight is Yom Kippur, naturally the word ‘repent’ comes to mind. But if you’ve ever read Harlan Ellison’s Hugo-award-winning story, you can’t think of the word ‘repent’ without also following that word with ‘Repent, Harlequin!’ Said the Ticktockman. (Ooooh…I just learned that you can […]
Dear Family, Whew! I just got through writing a diatribe about the $300 million in uncollected payroll taxes owed by Federal, State and local governments. You’re probably going to want to skip that.

Dear Family, I blinked and suddenly it’s Friday? What happened to the week? It was just Monday a minute ago! Well, it was very, very hot around here – generally up into the 3 digits. Where we live is definitely one of the hottest parts of the City of Los Angeles. (You can see it […]
Dear Family, It’s been a busy and fun week in Las Vegas at the IRS Tax Forum. We must have walked 5 miles a day, just inside the Rio. Learned lots of things. Hope to remember them. I am writing from my hotel room at the Gold Coast, right across the street from the Rio. […]

Dear Family, This week is the 515th anniversary of the start of Christopher Columbus’s voyage – when he discovered the Americas. That was a very exciting discovery for Europeans who needed a political and economic safety valve, since life in Europe and England was so oppressive in those days. Naturally, those already living in, what […]
Dear Family, What a wonderful week. After rushing like crazy last week and all last weekend to finish projects and meet deadlines, Monday afternoon I flew off to Las Vegas to meet a man I’d met on the Internet. We had the most wonderful time. It really was like two old friends getting together and […]
