Not wanting to start a whole new thread here, but does anyone know anything about a painter signed "Korati" (at least, that's what I can make out)? The piece I have is absolutely stunning, so I'd love to learn a bit more about them. I couldn't find a single thing on Google. Thanks.

Just an example.

Today we were missing two players with real guts—maybe three if you count Smodlaka—but Djokovic and Markovic actually have stones. Dobud has them too, but he lacks that composure. To me, being truly smart means staying cool under pressure, like being the one guy on a street corner who doesn't flinch when things get messy.

Don't even get me started on the world's best goalkeeper. The guy’s got such a heavy weight pulling him down that he can barely keep his head in the game when shots start flying past him.

Since you clearly consider yourself such a massive water polo expert, why don't you try explaining this a bit more clearly for the rest of us?😂
Was Boskovic off his game during the duel?
Does Dobud lack composure?
What makes Djokovic and Markovic so much tougher than the rest of the guys? Is it just them, or is everyone else lacking that grit?
Sure, Pavic might be a class below Vican, but who else would you even put in goal instead of him?

My mistake... I was looking up some real estate info... spoke too fast there...
In the US tax code (back in 2004), regarding inheritance and gifts, it states that ancestors are included in the first line of succession—basically, blood relatives in a direct line.

Sandra Parker3 said:Parents—specifically fathers in this context—fall into the second tier of inheritance. 🙂

If that's the case, why does the law state they belong to the first tier😉?
And then list siblings and their spouses in the second?

Sandra Parker3 said:When a parent gifts a car to their kid, there isn't a special tax on the transfer, but if the child is gifting a car back to the parent, then you're looking at a special tax on passenger vehicles.
How much would that even run me?
And why even bother gifting it? If the car is in their name, just leave it that way. During a messy divorce, gifting assets like that can easily be challenged as some kind of shady maneuver to hide property during the split.
They should just get the car looked at and change the locks—find someone else besides the dealership, I'm sure there's someone who won't charge an arm and a leg. Besides, what kind of car are we even talking about here?
You're being a little sketchy with this, and what about the state inspection? Only the owner can handle that, and they can't do it without the actual vehicle being there. 😎

I'm pretty new to all this (just a sophomore in college), so I don't know everything, but I think you might be mistaken...
According to the IRS... heirs and recipients who are in the first line of succession with the decedent or donor qualify for TAX EXEMPTIONS. So, effectively, no tax is paid.🙂
But it looks like someone might get divorced in a way where the car becomes marital property anyway, which would make this whole gifting thing pointless...
I believe I'm right here... if not, please correct me. 😉
