Is a last will and testament a dead giveaway?

Yep. I found this out the hard way last week. My father-in-law passed away almost two years ago. (2013 - paid a partial year of taxes) His house didn't sell until early 2014. We had to file for the estate again for last year (2014) to cover the gains, which wasn't much, however the accountant still charged $185 for it, which was probably a single form!

Up to 55% giveaway to the tax man, I believe. - state side

Now the fun part; what purpose did/does it serve?

That's only usually true if your estates rather large. For mere mortals, such as myself, there is no tax on the passed through goodies.

Thank you for that, I'll try to bear it in mind.
Couple of questions though:
1) who are you?
2) why are you being rude to me?
3) what have I done to annoy you?

4) who cares?
I wouldn't take that if I were you Griff - why don't you just have his account deleted?

This is so left out of centre.
I don't understand.
Please explain.

Well, I've been running tests on my sql agent stuff, and have realized that my FileSystemWatcherEx code is somewhat flawed. Sometimes I get double events, and sometimes I don't when a file changes. After sitting there cussing for a while, I think I've managed to come up with something that might work all the time.
I created a class that creates filesystemwatcher for each of the change NotifyFilters, and an event queue (for each watcher) that manages the events as they happen. This event queue will only allow an event to be added one time for a given file. So, if you get two LastWrite change events, only the first one is added to the queue. The object that instantiates the watchers and queues sets up parallel tasks (one for each file watcher) to monitor that watcher's queue, and pumps events to subscribers (the WatcherEx class) which then bubbles the event to its subscriber(s).
The reason I call it "over-engineered" is that so far, it's taken almost 1000 lines of code to implement.
Testing begins.

Yeah, but I'm using the code from that article, and it's not working well. I'm gonna have to go back and edit the article when I finger out the problems.

Ah, kids these days!
"finger" was a Unix script, which pointed at someone (or some entity), returning their location, so it's appropriate usage.
Also, given that it's JSOP, "fingering" the trigger when you're about to blast something out of existence would also give an appropriate usage.

Ha! It's so long since I worked with such an antiquated operating system that I'd quite forgotten that. I prefer CPM.
