And, of course, he didn't inherit any of the funds his father avoided paying as tax when he passed away either...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

He did, and paid inheritance tax on it....
The govt always gets it in the end.

'insisting that he paid income tax on the dividends in the "normal way"'
i.e. not.

well seeing as that was your only original stance - you were totally wrong - But I'll accept your 'partial apology'

Parov Stelar - Clap Your Hands[^]
Last week (actually just after the last Song of the Week) I've seen Parov Stelar live 
Swing, dance, party, with Clap Your Hands being one of my favorite songs of the evening.
And, obviously, also my favorite Song of the Week

Who are you and what's happened to the tone-deaf plonker that usually does this post every week?

So I guess you're saying something nice for a change, but it's disguised as another hateful remark...
The worst part is that it's from someone who listens Joe Bonamassa! 
Anyway, had you paid attention you would've known I've had quite some different genres in these posts already!

Absolutely! Your ability to pick the worst possible examples out of the greatest number of genres never fails to amaze me!

Like Joe Bon... Oh wait, that was you.
And of course The Scorpions! Oh no, that was also you.
Or that thirteen in a dozen pop band Tonight Aliv... Ehhh...
Alright, I'll stop, this is getting painful for you

If I hadn't coincidentally discovered Parov Stelar (and Electro Swing in general) myself just a few weeks ago, this would've been the first SotW I'd be really appreciative of - now I'll have to wait for the next one, so keep 'em coming!

Don't worry. I enjoy my Song of the Week threads.
There's usually at least one person to enjoy my song and even if there isn't people sometimes share songs that I happen to like too (and those songs even became Song of the Week themselves)!
It also seems to piss off that weird number person, which is a bonus

Yeah, that's the week we're living in...

I like it .
I am a big fan of The Manhattan Transfer and swing[^] is one of their specialities.

I must confess I only know swing from Parov Stelar and background music in (old) movies
The Manhattan Transfer sounds good though

I have finally landed what I consider close to my dream job (besides winning the lottery).
Now working 100% remote from Florida to Virginia on SharePoint development. Only caveat is I have to reactivate my TS clearance.
Florida unemployment is the worst. No matter what you made in a real job, they cap the unemployment to $275 a week, not even enough to pay my rent.

Quote: Florida unemployment is the worst
Based on the experience of one of my children: Absolutely! They take months to process new claims and then the pay-out is pathetic, regardless of how much they receive in unemployment taxes. And you have our governer to thank for that! Politicians! 
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

Nope. It's the 9th worst. Arizona's the worst. New York's the second worst. And here in the UK a lot of people would happily kill to get anywhere near as much as you do. As me dear old Dad would no doubt say at a time like this, you don't know you're born!
