Have you ever had the experience of parking in a one hour zone, inserting the coins, then finding yourself, forty-five minutes later, still in line at the bank? At such times, you might suddenly find religion, and fervently pray that ... you will make your meter.

In the days before calculators, accountants were frequently unable to get their debits to balance with their credits. So, in order to overcome the discrepancy, they often created a bogus account entitled "Taste" to store the unbalanced amount and allow the books to balance. Unfortunately, the government soon heard of this practice, and declared a new law: that there would, from this point on, ... be no accounting for Taste.
