Friday, the Rutland County Bar Association had its annual meeting and all-day continuing education session. There was a seminar on effect of the new Civil Unions law in Vermont on the lawyer's everyday practice, and I was drafted as a panelist for the real estate aspects.

After I had given my spiel and sat me down, another guy was speaking on the estate planning and tax aspects of the law, and I got to doodling while not listening to him as closely as I should have, and came up with the following:

A couple got married, though gay.
One wanted his friend's IRA.
He said to him, "Stover,
We need a rollover."
"Right now?" said his partner; "Okay!"

So am I a really bad person?

Peter.
