Movin’
Tumblr ain’t so hot, folks. I’m movin’ on. Here.
Happy Birthday Earl Scruggs!
The most revolutionary and soulful banjo player of the 20th century is celebrating his birthday today.
Earl’s cosmic excellence is difficult to overstate.
Coase
It’s Ronald Coase’s 99th birthday. Coase published his Nature of the Firm when he was 27. I’m told that he wrote it at the tender age of 21. Yowza!
Video Contest
Our short video is officially no longer in the lead at the Independent Women’s Forum video contest, and we may not get enough votes by midnight tomorrow to keep us there. Despite the fact that we have approximately 15-20 times the views as any of the other videos, that hasn’t translated into votes. If you want to help our video win the contest, help us promote it before midnight MONDAY NIGHT!
There is only one way to vote. Visit the video’s YouTube page and put (vote ONLY once) “My choice for the winner” in the comments. That’s it.
If you’ve already voted, don’t vote again or neither vote will count, but a tweet or blog post or Facebook post would be very helpful.

Double Down on Transit!
Kentucky’s Lt. Governor Dan Mongiardo wants a monorail in Louisville and if Kentuckians send him to the U.S. Senate, he’ll try to get it. After all, they’ve built monorails in Brockway, Ogdenville and North Haverbrook and by gum it put them on the map.
His press release indicates Mongiardo is ready to get serious about public transportation:
A recent study by the American Transportation Association found that for every dollar invested in public transportation creates four dollars in economic benefits.
Holy crud! If that’s true, can we just spend all of the U.S. budget on mass transit? We’ll all be rich! Let’s go!
