"Joe the Plumber" -- No License? Unpaid Taxes? And Tap Dancing with Sammy Davis, Jr.

Greetings. If you saw the final presidential debate last night, you heard enough about the now legendary "Joe the Plumber" to make you swear off routine sewer line cleaning for the next four years at least.

But with the global spotlight now shining brightly on "Joe" (who we now learn reportedly invoked both tap dancing and Sammy Davis, Jr. in reference to Obama) some other interesting tidbits are being reported, like his license and tax payments status.

All of this is a sideshow to the critical election main event of course, but since John McCain featured "Joe" in the debate, it's at least interesting to find out more about the man to whom McCain hitched his campaign's rhetorical wagon.
