One thing's for certain...
On my way in this morning I noticed a cab parked by the side of the road. It looked a bit odd so I pulled over and had a peek inside: the driver was hunched over the steering wheel with blood trickling out of his mouth. I reached in through the open window and checked his pulse. Nothing. I concluded that one thing's for certain in the life: death in taxis.

Ah, after 48 hours of mulling it over, I got it. The trick is to note Babyatom's use of the word "cab" in the first sentence - there must be a reason for this. And the reason was to create a punchline at the end - death and taxis ie. Death and Taxes.

That's exactly how it went - am I that transparent?

He he. It took me 48 hours to see though ;-) And I'm becoming adept at spotting Americanisms...cause I keep getting told off for using British English at work :-)
