Matt, that the sharpest outfit I've seen you in yet.
I'm a sexist pig and all for saying it, but it would be hard to make Alyona any babelier.
It's already hard.
Gillespie, Welch, we gave you plenty of money to go on CNN or Fox. Stop chasing Alyona's tail and get back to work!
Sorry boss, we got that envelope, but we thought it was money to do an interview with Ed Koch.
Sorry.
Are those real martinis?
And is the show always this insipid?
WTF? You left me at home to go with HIM?
So, I hear someone wrote a book or something. Have there been any blog posts about it?
Brian Doherty wrote a pretty good history of the libertarian movement but it suffered for lack of an editor. They tried to cover for that by calling it a "free-wheeling" history. It is still well worth your dime and time. Welch wrote some campaign book for the loser in some long-ago election. Sullum has written some good books. I haven't heard of any new books from Reason editors in the past few years.If there is a new book they aren't doing any promotion for it. It might be a dry education policy paper by Mrs. Winecommonsewer or something technical like that.
She's so cute when she misunderstands libertarianism!
Stop chasing Alyona's tail and get back to work! I think?
