Miscellany

MISCELLANY....I'm still recovering from a long, sleepless night about which the less said the better. So blogging will be slow (or nonexistent) for the next few hours. In the meantime, we foiled a terrorist plot in Germany, Tyler Cowen tells us that it's bad for a company's fortunes if its CEO's wife dies but good for its fortunes if the CEO's mother-in-law dies, and Sen. Larry Craig is still dithering over whether he's going to resign.

Oh, and Max might be gone, but the MaxSpeak replacement site is up and running. It's called EconoSpeak and you can find it here:
