  1. Nobody requires my brilliant, pithy insights today? No? Okay. I'll give the hamsters powering my blogsite the weekend off. Cheers.
  2. Is it wrong of me to have sexual feelings for a website? RT @Awl How To Cook A Fucking Steak http://www.theawl.com/19148
  3. @deaexmachina @awl Of course, the risk with fundamentalist mac + cheese fanatics is that they will turn to terrorism. Elbowhu akbar!
  4. Who needs Gourmet magazine when we have The Awl? Nobody! RT @Awl Fundamentalist Macaroni and Cheese http://www.theawl.com/19133
  5. On second thought, I deleted the link to The Agonist's post on principle. (Find it yourself.) Even @felixsalmon might be proud of me.
  6. The Agonist writes a very long (& good) piece on the AIG CDS fiasco with exactly *zero* external links. Ballsy!
  7. @carney Starting Tuesday, it's renminbi.
  8. @felixsalmon All hail the Anointed One.
  9. Thierry Henry's hand ball should cost him $20 million in future earnings and perpetual boos. Oops, silly me: Why do I expect justice?
  10. By the way, any chiropterologists out there care to explain why bat feces are routinely conjoined with insanity? Just askin'.
  11. More "batshit crazy" Wall Street, courtesy of Kid Dynamite: http://bit.ly/3nFvz3 (via @abnormalreturns) I love stupid hedgies!
  12. RT @LDLoeb: @EpicureanDeal Here's the link to the Bloomberg panel - http://bit.ly/Cfdw4. I'll watch it when I get a free hour & 13 minutes.
  13. RT @deepfoo: Also amazing how Geithner keeps dodging the fact that he had tremendous power at NY Fed, and did nothing to curb excesses.
  14. Non-video recap of Bloomberg/VF journo crisis panel I mentioned earlier: RT @vanityfairmag http://is.gd/4YUVn
  15. Twitter doom loop: I link to Paul Krugman, who links to me: http://tinyurl.com/ygvwdhu Aieee!
  16. @LDLoeb No, they acquitted themselves well. Sorkin, Ferguson, MacLean, Burroughs, MC'd by Michael Lewis.
  17. Downside to Ferguson as risk consultant: the crisis may arrive before he stops lecturing you on its inevitability.
  18. One possible conclusion from Bberg panel: To control systemic risk, keep an academic historian of finance (Niall Ferguson) on retainer.
  19. Very interesting Bloomberg Video on journalist panel on the financial crisis last night. Sorry, no link. You'll have to find it yourself.
  20. Peter Solomon proposes a windfall profits tax on Wall Street: http://bit.ly/4fTwsV And some people call *me* socialist! RT @NYTimesDealBook
