Oh, That

New York’s Herbert Steed, 63, said he had no job or income, and collected $176 in welfare every two weeks. But he was able to put down $27,000 cash to lease an apartment in the Trump Tower for six months, allegedly paid for out of $800,000 in stolen money. In addition to being charged with grand larceny, he has also been charged with failing to report the $800,000 as income to the welfare authority. (AP) ...I simply overlooked it. Slipped my mind.
