No, not the late great Ferlin Husky’s 1957 crossover single (but that brings back memories of standing next the old Kingsbridge Armory, under the Jerome Avenue elevated tracks, singing “Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-oh, what I’d give, fuh-or the life time I’ve wasted….” I remember that teenage angst so well, fifty-five years on).

No, this is Tax Court taking today and, of course, tomorrow, off, with a day of grace to all you filers.

As a former boss used to say, here’s the scoop, Betty Boop:

NOTICE

“The United States Tax Court will be closed on Tuesday, December 24, 2013, and will close for regular business at noon on Tuesday, December 31, 2013.

“For purposes of computation of time under Rule 25, Tax Court Rules of Practice and Procedure, December 24, 2013, and December 31, 2013, shall each be treated in the same manner as a legal holiday. See Rule 25(a)(2) and (b), Tax Court Rules of Practice and Procedure.”

Merry Christmas.
