Linksomnia
I knew I wouldn’t be tired the night before classes start. I avoided coffee and everything! I don’t even have any classes meeting tomorrow, and I’m still wired. So, some late-night links for you, taken from bOING bOING: The enthralling, disturbing tale of the great Eve Online in-game scam; the NY Times’ diagram of links from Karl Rove to the Swift Veterans for “Truth”; the undulating figure in Edvard Munch’s “The Scream” heard to say, “omg i been 0wn3d”. (This is actually quite sad: it is likely that the unfenceable painting will simply be destroyed over unpaid ransom.)
Unrelated: Anyone have any recommendations for an accessible microeconomics textbook or essay collection? I continue to believe that exposure to econ will help me in my future research, but before I commit to an actual course I really need to be sure I can stick with it at that level (or if I should just stick to the “I read a great article” dinner-conversation level).
