I Am Mankiw, I Am Douche

Greg Mankiw writes (translated from the Bullshit):

"Recently I found myself desiring to highlight how important I am. I noticed people were talking about how this other professor disclaimed any interest in debating the stimulus, saying: 'all I know on this issue I got from Greg Mankiw's blog.' Gosh! Look how important I am! So I contrived a post that speculated the professor was being tongue in cheek -- fanciful of me, because hey, if I were someone else, I'd parrot me -- in order to draw further attention to my own large, throbbing intellect. It's rock hard, my intellect."

Pussy of the Day

Is Alex Rodriguez, for confining himself to a mea culpa, for not going after the player's union and the leakers, for not offering Peter Gammons to feel his testicles.
