What they're saying
- I can't believe you're an economist. Fantastic.
-- B Madsen - John Whitehead = HILARIOUS!
-- Mark C R UK - ... explains the mechanics of things with numbers and reason and insight. Don't be intimidated by the economics angle. It's never abstruse or technical. Instead, the tone is straightforward and forthright, at times bracing or breezy.
-- The Suzuki Foundation Blog - 10 Interesting Economics Blogs
-- Milken Institute Review - These guys have the self-confidence to call their blog simply 'Environmental Economics', and rightly so.
-- Oikos - ... [a] surprisingly entertaining site about economics.
-- Bottleworld.net - "... the refreshingly accessible 'Environmental Economics' blog"
-- American Institute of Biological Sciences - I'm not an economist nor am I a genius, but what you state is so glaringly obvious I don't understand why the vast majority of Americans don't get it.
-- Fritz - ... the Environmental Economics blog ... is now the default homepage on my browser (but then again, I guess I am a wonk -- a word I learned on the E.E. blog). That is a very nice service to the profession.
-- Anonymous - "... I try and read the blog everyday and have pointed it out to other faculty who have their students read it for class. It is truly one of the best things in the blogosphere."

Jeez...who's drinking $5.97/pint beer in Columbus? Don't they know there's a recession on?

So, Tim's effectively announced that he's moving into Joe's house ($0 per pint) in retirement.
What he doesn't know is that Joe only taps kegs of Blatz or Milwaukee's Best, and his idea of fancy is those skunky green bottle beers imported from Europe.

Ironman,
Nothing wrong with The Beast. Sometimes quantity trumps quality.
Posted by: Tim Haab | May 02, 2008 at 12:44 PM
I don't disagree. The Beast certainly has its place. I just prefer to use it for its originally intended purpose: stripping furniture.
