I will be discussing with you about this interesting article. Interesting to see the Austrian School in the picture ah??
HA! I love this: http://media.economist.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/full-width/images/print-edition/20111231_BBD004_0.jpg
Is that supposed to be Bob Murphy?
You tell me…
Not to mention…
-
Can you honestly tell who the other three guys are and not guess the 4th?
-
Who the hell else would it be?
Calm down, John. I just wanted to make sure.
It’s interesting that Murphy’s name isn’t mentioned in the article itself.
Sorry, that’s a funny picture and all, but I don’t think a person who feels the need to embellish an interrogative pronoun with a phrase like “the hell” is exactly calm at that moment.
Apology accepted. 
What do you think I was apologizing for?
If you’re going to play that game, then I’ll say that I accept your concession.
It sounded like you were apologizing for everything that followed after the words “I’m sorry” (comma). Usually that’s what those words mean.
What did I concede?
Hardly. I used the phrase “sorry, but”. That second part is important. Somehow I think you know this already.
That you weren’t exactly calm when you posted earlier.
Right, it means “forgive me for what I’m about to say”…as in, “I apologize in advance for the following statement but I’m going to make it anyway.”
I did? Where did I do that?
Ah, yes. In this case, I meant, “Forgive me for disagreeing with you, but I still disagree with you.”
Well, you didn’t respond to my point - that a person who feels the need to embellish an interrogative pronoun with “the hell” isn’t exactly calm at that moment. I took your non-response to be an implicit concession.
Right. Basically like I said. And I accept your plea for forgivness.
Oh I see. You made an assumption not based on any positive evidence, but simply on a lack of dialogue. This was not wise. You were wrong.
Whether you think it was “wise” or not, or whether you think I’m wrong or not, is irrelevant to me. I’m going to continue to make the assumption until you respond to it. You cannot shame or intimidate (a la the losing horn from The Price Is Right) me into doing otherwise.
In fact, I daresay that your actions here further imply that you’re not exactly calm in this exchange.
It’s cute that you would include the words “you think”, to make it sound as though it were a matter of opinion if you were wrong or not. But I’m telling you, I conceded nothing, so your assumption that I did is wrong. I don’t know how it can be much clearer than that.
While it certainly wasn’t the intention, it’s nice to hear that a Price is Right losing horn doesn’t intimidate you. I’d be afraid for you if it did.
Make all the assumptions you want. I’m having a good time.
… Nope, still not shamed or intimidated into shutting up. Nothing has changed on my part. I also don’t care how entertaining you claim this is for you. So now what?
I kind of like that AE ideas are gaining acceptance. However, the article does not develop enough on AE. But it is a good step and eventually could have a serious impact. Ron Paul is improving his chances of winning and talking good stuff.
Hope you enjoyed it.
Uh..again, that wasn’t the intention, but again it’s nice to hear that a simple tuba/trombone ensemble and a smiley face doesn’t intimidate you.
So you’re still wrong then? That’s too bad.
That’s too bad too. It would be awesome if you could enjoy it as much as I am.
