Truman breaks tax on memoir sale lowering liability
President Truman won IRS permission to spread taxes on his Life Magazine memoir sale over several years. The $600,000 deal could otherwise have produced about $503,000 in taxes in six years, with a net take of roughly $262,000 after tax. The ruling mirrors prior treatment of Eisenhower's wartime memoirs and clarifies the tax approach for casual property sales to authors.

Little Lines by Margie B Boswelll
Supply impulse with plums and it may pelt you with pits. When ideas are wordy wisdom is silent. The waste is the tray for worries of the day. Oily arguments are slippery ramps. I met the most wonderful man last night hes smart enough to make money and dumb enough to get married.
