Welcome!
 

Mama always said I was number 1, and now I am. On a more serious note, are we going to discuss things here or will this new format go to waste.

Well, now at least we have two
 

Fear not, Harry. The tax board will not go unwanted. BTW, any word on who will be replacing Paravano yet?

Well, now at least we have two
 

Who's Paravano?

Well, now at least we have two
 

Never mind that. Ask what did this person do to deserve the high honor of being recognized here? Anyone here know what P. Olson did before her highfalutin current stint in OCC Int'l? That's right, boys & girls, prepare taxes! For 16 years!

Time to pull out the ol' E&P worksheets to look over while chugging beer at D&B tonight.

Well, now at least we have two
 

I thought Pam worked w/ Fred Goldberg at Skadden prior to her Treasury job?

On a lighter note, good to see some familiar faces...
-Harry

But who is this paravino person?

Well, now at least we have two
 

I think this was before she went to law school (as reported one of the tax reporters in an article discussing whether tax preparers must be federally regulated.

D&B now serves primavera, very haute cuisine and elegant dining, I must say.

Well, now at least we have two
 

I figured out who Paravano is, I haven't heard of any gossip on who's his replacement. I'll see what the rumor mill says.
Harry

I, on the other hand, do not have a clue as to who Paravano is and am dying for illumination.

Paravano
 

He's the Senior Counsel to Pam Olsen. He's rumored to be heading back to private practice this summer, and I was wondering if those in govt have any idea who is in the running for the job.

As you can see, the topic, well, the topic of tax in general, has generated a firestorm of interest here.

Fuck it, I'm going to go have a martini or two,

Paravano
 

I haven't yet heard anything.
-Harry H

New Board...
 

Same old sh*t.

New Board...
 

Hey, COBE, how ya been?

taxwonk

Busy as hell
 

There is no rest in-house. I've got a few deals cooking and about 10 audit issues going right now. Have you landed a new gig yet?
