Entering a New and Sinister Period in Economic History
Been a little busy lately. To tide you over until I can breathe again, here are some of my creepy Onion friends' (TM) links:
Joe Garden has a blog. He has far more crap than I do.
Dan Vebber has a website. He watches far more cable shopping television than I do.
Maria Schneider has it. She expresses it far more capably than I do.
Todd Hanson has a job. (I think.) He has far more bizarre correspondence with Merrill Markoe than I do.
Amie Barrodale has dating advice. She uses parallel constructions far more than I do.
Over to you, Doug!
Carlos,
How are things in sunny København? I'm delighted to see that you and Noel are presenting at the EBHA. And on the Panama Canal, too! (I've been reading up on the early history of the canal this past year, for reasons not unadjacent to the possibility of a longer-lived Léon Gambetta.)
Looking forward to giving your paper the thorough reading that it deserves. You guys have fun!

Posted by: Bernard Guerrero at August 17, 2006 03:28 PMWow, it's good to see HDTD back! I was beginning to worry a bit.

As for the conference paper itself; the fracken thing killed my printer (/shakes fist/ Damn You Teddy Roosevelt) although I guess that fault lies with my new secretary who over filled the paper tray.
Again congrats to you both.
Just did the presentation with Noel, sort of like a Penn and Teller routine. (One guess on who was which.) The Q&A went well. Gavin Wright is very cool.
Wish the hotel had an exercise room. I feel vaguely like a boiled ham.

Posted by: laloca at August 19, 2006 04:52 PMYou don't have to worry about my purity of essence, LL. I think I violated fifteen of those the first time I met her.
I could go on.
Posted by: Carlos at August 19, 2006 10:43 PMI wouldn't worry about anything, were I you. one can hardly put themselves up as an avatar of the 30something, sleek, lala new york femme and then talk about eating at cosi. haha. ahahaha. ok, I can't stop giggling. haha.
(you go read the three I mentioned and you'll see why they are relevant.)
cosi. ha. like the pedestrian guy from midtown lunch? haha. maybe old Zach'll hand out a sanctimonius list of 100, too. hot diggety! hahaha. (but you could get some knife-twisting mileage on that old #47, xox)
Posted by: laloca at August 20, 2006 04:35 PMHey, _I've_ eaten at Cosi. I like the free pieces of bread they have in the bowl. MMm, saltstarchoily. They make the price of the sandwiches almost reasonable.
Now, Chipotle Grill I cannot fathom at all.
Posted by: Carlos at August 20, 2006 06:15 PMSchneider's geek stories are excellent, BTW. I named my schauzer "BJ" as a child, after the Greg Evigan vehicle. There. Finally got that off my chest.
Posted by: Bernard Guerrero at August 25, 2006 04:15 AMCongratulations on the presentation.
