It's back. Monday's Child is full of links. You're welcome.
1. Frampton comes back! Here at KPC we covered the travails of one UNC physics prof., Paul Frampton, in Argentina. So here, and then here, and then here. and then here.
But, now, he's BACK! Ready to get back in the game. No, really, he rallied. All this texts that he called "jokes" at his trial? Those were fake! And, to be fair, they were a bit odd. It's all ridiculously entertaining. Clearly should be a movie, with Will Farrell playing the lead role.
2. Viewpoint diversity is important. But "affirmative action for conservatives" would just double down on the existing problem.
3. Binders full of asinines.
4. We're just wrestling, son!
5. Apparently, the only important "diversity" is diversity of hues. Diversity of views or experiences doesn't count. And if you think it does matter, you will be forced into a Cultural Revolution style "Struggle Session" to be humiliated and forced to apologize.
6. Robotics is not going to end the world.
7. My man Sam Bowman explains what the word "endogenous" means. And he's right.
8. Did you know this? "Railfans" are people who like trains. But they scorn "Foamers," who really really like trains. Sometimes, railfans feel persecuted and misunderstood.
9. The awesomely awesome Megan McArdle on EconTalk? Two of my favorite people talking to each other? Where do I sign up?
10. This....THIS is what made me decide that "Monday's Child" still has a place in a world of Twitter. Because sometimes you just need links. Here's the story. For those of you too young to remember, here's the correct historical reference: "With God as my witness..." That may have been the single best moment of television in the late 1970s, a time when television comedy ruled.
I want to end the new beginning of Monday's Child with a request: Please send me links that belong here. send to mungowitz at gmail dot com. Thanks!
