Everyone knows that the early 2000s were the best: rumble pack N64 with Goldeneye, non-evil Internet, no smart phones, lame non-addictive "social media".

So neat to see Deseret News profile my good friend Ryan Starks. Utah couldn't ask for a better person working economic development. My only claim to fame in my non-existent political career was managing Ryan's campaign for Weber State University student body president. deseret.com/politics/2025/…

Celebrate the U.S. Army’s role, including 189k Black soldiers, in liberating 4m men women and children from human bondage, destroying slavery, saving democracy and the USofA. #juneteenth2025

Every journal acceptance is special, but this one means the world. Our #RCT on girls’ education & bicycle access in Zambia began in 2016. After years of work, 7 rejections, and revisions, it’s finally found a home at The Economic Journal! Grateful to Basit Zafar & two generous referees.

General Bragg from the Confederacy was a terrible general (one of the worst in our 249 year history) who violated his oath to the Constitution and fought against his country. We should honor those who deserve it. pjmedia.com/david-manney/2…

Ugh...economics shouldn't be ideological. There isn't conservative econ or liberal econ. Its the quest for positive analysis and facts...and then letting the policymaker apply judgment and face the voters.

Me: Okay kids, heading to San Francisco for work....want anything? Kid #3: Dad! If you go to a Giants game, will you eat some ice cream and bring me the mini hat? Me: Wait?!? You want me to watch baseball, eat ice cream, and bring you the hat? Yes Me: I think I can do that.
