Every time I think about putting up wallpaper, I have reason to reconsider.

From a guy getting run thru the breadbasket with a flagpole to the first reel of a 1937 screwball comedy. Never change, Mr. Gould, we love you exactly as you are.

Well, that and the fact that you graduated four years ago. Um, you did graduate, didn't you?

The Copacabana agreed yesterday to replace its Manhattan nightclub license with a temporary six-month permit and to pay the city a total of $37,371.34 in business taxes, while leaving unresolved the question of whether purported slot-machine king Frank Costello is a part owner of the club. The payments are to be made in a series of installments, starting with a $10,000 payment yesterday, followed additional payments of $5000 per month until the debt is liquidated. Other provisions of the agreement include a pledge to dismiss from employment and not to reemploy certain specified persons known to have underworld ties.

Will they deduct the $27,200 Costello left in the cab from this business tax bill?
