    JM>   Sales tax in WV is six per cent.  This is on everything, except for   
    JM> food for immediate consumption.  If you buy a pound of hamburger in a   
    JM> grocery store its not taxed, but buy a hamburger in a restaurant, that   
    JM> is taxed.   
      
     As my late barber noted, "that makes as much sense as tits on a boar

     No wonder I have atrial fibrillation now. :P Seriously, it was likely    
   caused from drinking too much diet green tea citrus, with all the caffeine.

    JM>   As Mark Twain is credited with saying: When I was 16 I thought my   
    JM> father was the dumbest man alive.  When I reached 25 I began to marvel   
    JM> at how much he had learned.  (That's a bit mangled).
