In an article by the Tax Foundation that examines the record of retiring U.S. Supreme Court Justice David Souter on tax cases, the author started with this story:

"When asked why he sang along with the late Chief Justice William Rehnquist at the Court's annual Christmas party, he responded, "I have to. Otherwise I get all the tax cases."^"

Sigh ...

On another note, I was asked by someone (who really really should know better) in writing, why I stated in a trust deed that the duration of a trust should not exceed 100 years.

Bigger sigh ...
