I just finished an excellent book about cutting edge economic theory that I think is really interesting even if you are not a business geek. It's called The Origin of Wealth by Eric Beinhocker. Some of you more astute individuals might notice that the title is a juxtaposition of 2 of the most influential books written over the last 250 years (Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations and Darwin's The Origin of Species). All I will say for now is that it is a very appropriate title. I am hoping to put together a short summary of what I found most interesting and revealing about it, but while I am working on that here is some random stupidity inspired by the Christmas season:
The 10 Least Popular Christmas Songs
10. Something's Coming Down the Chimney (And I don't think it's Santa)
9. Frosty the Illegitimate Love-Child
8. Rudolph Gets a Rifle
7. Nuclear Winter Wonderland
6. O Holy Shit!
5. Jingle Bells Palsy
4. Must Be Lactose Intolerant Claus
3. The Night the Elves Unionized
2. Christmas Coup d'Etat
And Finally:
1. White Christmas (as sung by Michael Richards)
