For some reason this reminded someone of me, though I regard steak sauce as an abomination.
A long pondered but only lately realized blog about economics, politics, evaluation, econometrics, academia, college football and whatever else comes to mind.

Merla Mae (sad) news
The owner of Merla Mae's, my favorite ice cream place in London, Ontario, has passed on. I always arrange my trips so that I can make a stop at Merla Mae's whenever I make it back to Western Ontario.

Adventures in applied epistemology in other disciplines
From the Atlantic, a very entertaining piece about a very entertaining professor who does not think the dinosaurs were done in by an asteroid and, as such, received a truckload of awful treatment from her colleagues in the worlds of geology and paleontology.
From Quartz, a story of false positives from fMRI.
My calm assurance that such things never, ever go on in economics gives me great comfort.
