- Leigh Speakers' Bureau:
The Eighteen-Year-Old is going to college next year, which means that I need to think about making more money. (The idea that one might write checks to rather than receive checks from universities is now strange to me.) So I have signed up with the Leigh Speakers' Bureau which also handles, among many others: Chris Anderson; Suzanne Berger; Michael Boskin; Kenneth Courtis; Clive Crook; Bill Emmott; Robert H. Frank; William Goetzmann; Douglas J. Holtz-Eakin; Paul Krugman; Bill McKibben; Paul Romer; Jeffrey Sachs; Robert Shiller;James Surowiecki; Martin Wolf; Adrian Wooldridge.

We are here already.
You just can't see us because we're hiding behind the dark matter!

It looks like it's from a Demotivators calendar. Calendars and other stuff at http://www.despair.com/.

It works too easily, plug in any word, governating, decidering, option collecting, just put in being American and be done with it.

Blogging attracts Monkeys? It must pay peanuts . . .

Sooner or later, with enough blogging, some blogger will produce Shakespeare's Hamlet . . .

This one reduced me to helpless laughter, everytime I thought about the original "infinite monkeys with infinite typewriters" line.
Didn't someone say USENET had disproved the idea that Shakespeare would be reproduced?
We need a more infinite infinity! (I realize that mathematics includes varying sized infinities.)
Isn't the idea that blogging will create a NEED for more text a very Econ idea? Or reminiscent of that Vernor Vinge book?
