In
1931, Al Capone was sentenced to prison for income tax evasion. He was
a violent sociopathic thug, and was dumb enough to not file income
taxes even though he had a "legit" occupation as a used furniture
dealer. However he was not completely stupid. He is once said to have
remarked that "A pleasant attitude and a gun will get you more than a
pleasant attitude by itself."
In
1989 the World Series in San Francisco was delayed due to the
earthquake. I was at work. It was "interesting." Never saw a
reinforced cement floor flex like a small wave breaking on a beach
before that..
