You *do* have references, don’t you? CLARK: (cont.) Cat, why are you handing me over the Metropolis phone book?  Just what Nor ordered! Jury of his peers (21y/o male troublemakers with a girl in every port): Right. Guilty. They can get those guys to show up to jury duty?

They supply naked women in the hotel rooms? I'm thinking 1/2 the population might balk at such a taxpayer expense. This is why they do not itemize such things. I think half the population is a low estimate at the level of balking anyway.

No, that they couldn't claim a deduction on their tax forms. Funny thing that. There was a report a couple of months in the news on an employee gratification trip to Budapest for insurance agents (I think). Those who made the most sales got nookie on company expense. When it became public knowledge later on, there’s been a bit of ruckus and amongst other things, money equivalent benefits for which taxes must be paid.  Michael

That a company actually did this, or people were stupid enough to claim it on their taxes.

Michael But it means that the company claimed it on THEIR taxes to let the Euro goven't know it was due.

If I am reading this right it sounds like the people are in trouble for not listing it as a form of income on their taxes.
