E-Burg
Word on the Street
By Jay-Burg
July
13, 2007
This
is the weekly source for all the unofficial stuff that may not be
in Eldersburg Print. I'm Jay-Burg, local resident, worker bee, and
connoisseur of everything E-Burg.
"I...forgot"
Will Eldersburg's newest millionaire, Joseph Turgeon, forget to
pay taxes on this past week's Lotto win? Joseph
Turgeon, Eldersburg resident, won $1 million in the Lotto, then
shared the story of how he forgot that he played until the day after
the drawing. It reminded me of the Steve Martin monologue
on Saturday Night Live:
"You..
can be a millionaire.. and never pay taxes! You can be a millionaire..
and never pay taxes! You say.. "Steve.. how can I be a millionaire..
and never pay taxes?" First.. get a million dollars. Now..
you say, "Steve.. what do I say to the tax man when he comes
to my door and says, 'You.. have never paid taxes'?" Two
simple words. Two simple words in the English language: "I
forgot!" How many times do we let ourselves get into terrible
situations because we don't say "I forgot"? Let's say
you're on trial for armed robbery. You say to the judge, "I
forgot armed robbery was illegal." Let's suppose he says
back to you, "You have committed a foul crime. you have stolen
hundreds and thousands of dollars from people at random, and you
say, 'I forgot'?" Two simple words: Excuuuuuse me!!"
Will
Joseph, too, forget? Joseph, here's a link for you, just in case:
And
the winner is you . . . and the IRS

It was the recurring theme of our movie, Eldersburg:
Boondock Suburbia. It's a common thread in responses to our

2007 Survey. And now, the word on the street is that Money Magazine
will soon be listing Eldersburg on their web site as one of the
best places to live in their 2007 list. See
