Now That’s a Birthday Image

Tom Woods

"Well written, well researched, and the thesis put forth is well argued.... Woods has opened up an area of historical analysis that should invite further study."
-Journal of American History
"During these times that challenge our freedoms there is no one more qualified to make U.S. history relevant to the fight against big government than Thomas Woods."
-Barry Goldwater Jr.
Former Member of Congress
"I strongly recommend Woods's work."
-The Honorable Ron Paul,
U.S. House of Representatives
"Written with great clarity and fluency, making the complex philosophical and theological concepts approachable."
-Journal of American Studies
"A must-read."
-Barron's
"An excellent reading source for anyone interested in financial markets, and much more so for anyone interested in learning about capitalism without all the misinterpretations being thrown about in the financial media."
-Asia Times
"Provocative, well-written, and deserves to be read."
-Catholic Historical Review
"An engaging and important contribution to scholarship on the history of American Catholicism."
-Journal of the Historical Society
"Woods and [co-author Kevin] Gutzman appeal to both left and right in this constitutionalist jeremiad…. The authors' exegeses of the Constitution and court decisions, heavy on original intent arguments, are lucid and telling."
-Publishers Weekly
"A marvelous read. Every chapter taught me something new and unexpected."
-Tom Bethell, senior editor,
The American Spectator
"The hottest book today is Meltdown, by my friend Tom Woods."
-Judge Andrew Napolitano, senior judicial analyst,
FOX News Channel
"Should be required reading."
-Economic Affairs (London)
"Woods, one of the best classical liberal [libertarian] scholars of his generation, has once more placed us in his debt with this lucid and tightly argued book."
-David Gordon, The Mises Review
"Tom Woods is one of my dearest allies in the struggle against wrong-headed and dangerous economic policy."
-Peter Schiff

It’s economist Bob Murphy’s birthday today. A fan sent him this:

If you are missing the reference, you need to watch Interview with a Zombie. (And also know that Bob has refuted Krugman more than all other economists combined.)

First of all, what a great image! But I’m not sure what it means.
Maybe something like Bob (as a zombie) eating Krugman’s brain for lunch?
BTW, slim pickin’s.

That brain is still too big. Should be the size of a walnut. A small one.

I’ve seen the video, and the blooper video probably 5 times each. Always puts me in a good mood when I’m not in one. Tom, you mentioned in one of your speeches that you were planning a sequel, when is that going to happen?

Got Brains? (that would be a good take on that meme)

(didn’t know Paulie Krugnuts had them?)

Anybody notice that Bob looks like he’s ready to vomit? LOL
Mike

Can’t say I blame him.

They say that dinosaurs had brains the size of walnuts. So, that makes sense.
