IRS

A man, called to an audit by the IRS, asked his accountant for advice on
what to wear. "Wear your shabbiest clothing. Let him think you are a


pauper." Then he asked his lawyer the same question, but got the opposite


advice. "Do not let them intimidate you. Wear your most elegant suit and


tie."


Confused, the man went to his rabbi, told him of the conflicting advice,


and


requested some resolution of the dilemma. "Let me tell you a story,"


replied


the rabbi. "A woman, about to be married, asked her mother what to wear on


her wedding night. 'Wear a heavy, long, flannel nightgown that goes right


up


to your neck.' But when she asked her best friend, she got conflicting


advice. 'Wear your most sexy negligee, with a V neck right down to your


navel.'


The man protested: "What does all this have to do with my problem with the


IRS?"


"No matter what you wear, you are going to get screwed."
