Assorted links

I've decided to go back to doing occasional "assorted links" posts to clear out the backlog of things that I found interesting and/or amusing but do not feel the need to comment about more extensively.

1. Dave Barry on the death of newspapers.

2. Ed Glaeser on Jeff Miron's new book on libertarianism. Jeff's blog is on the list on the right; it performs the useful service of making me feel very moderate. Jeff used to be Michigan.

3. Chain restaurant selection flowchart.

4. Impressive leadership in Georgia's athletic department. But why are the really important bits buried at the end of the story?

5. Will Wilkinson on becoming a Canadian citizen.

Hat tip on #4: Charlie Brown
