Musings of an Econ PhD. Friday, December 28, 2007. Favorite Songs of 2007. Cause everyone else is doing it. Again, these are my. Songs (mainly, as determined by what iTunes and my iPod say I listened to the most), rather than the. The Historical Conquests of Josh Ritter. Josh Ritter). An extremely catchy song with lots of energy, and easy to sing along to. Particularly meaningful for me this year. Keep the Car Running. Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga. Paranoia in B flat Major. Andy Warhol and the Honeybees. Walker Kong)&...

Musings of an Econ PhD. Wednesday, October 3, 2007. Short post today: Josh Ritter's playing the Somerville Theater tomorrow and Friday (I'm going tomorrow).

Musings of an Econ PhD: Wegmans and the Office: 4.2, "Dunder-Mufflin Infinity"
http://lanephd.blogspot.com/2007/10/wegmans-and-office-42-dunder-mufflin.html
Musings of an Econ PhD. Friday, October 5, 2007. Wegmans and the Office: 4.2, "Dunder-Mufflin Infinity". Loved much of last night's ep (favorite part: Kelly's two headshots, "We have a date! Only one Wegmans product appearance, near as I can tell:. Above the fridge, sure enough: Wegman's brand Corn Flakes! This got me thinking: what Wegman's brand products am I most fond of? I too love icecream. But most of them are nonveg. :(. October 13, 2007 at 7:14 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Musings of an Econ PhD: September 2007
http://lanephd.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Musings of an Econ PhD. Sunday, September 30, 2007. Wegmans "The Office"=the greatest things get even better! Word arrived to me today from back home in Webster that "The Office" would begin showing Wegman's products throughout the season this year, in order to remain as authentic as possible. This makes sense because the show is set in Scranton, PA, which Wegmans (greatest grocery store - nay! The episode begins with Michael enjoying breakfast. But not just any milk! Organic Soy milk, Wegmans brand!

Musings of an Econ PhD: Because everyone else is doing it...
http://lanephd.blogspot.com/2007/12/because-everyone-else-is-doing-it.html
Musings of an Econ PhD. Thursday, December 20, 2007. Because everyone else is doing it. Why make a "best music of the year list? Near as I can tell, there are at least 4 reasons:. Look at how much money I blew on music this year". Feed the ego; demonstrating superiority through obscure bands that no one else has heard of and are honestly not any better than. But you feel the need to include anyhow to appear musically literate. Because everyone else does. Who has also accumulated. Music is such a personal...

Musings of an Econ PhD: August 2007
http://lanephd.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
Musings of an Econ PhD. Friday, August 31, 2007. Albums I've purchased in August. Album of the month:. The Stage Names." Will's voice definitely takes some getting used to. After a few listens, though, I've become quite impressed by their musicality, composition and production. I would classify the album as good "violent rainstorm music," but not necessarily a sunny summer day album. Okkervil River gets a NYT review, and nothing for Ritter? Not even a Pitchfork review, though this isn't the stuff they us...

Musings of an Econ PhD: October 2007
http://lanephd.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Musings of an Econ PhD. Monday, October 15, 2007. Out of commission until mid-November. This whole dissertation thing will literally consume every minute of my time until job applications are sent out in mid-November (though I will celebrate the completion of my job talk by seeing these guys in their sold out concert. Not that I ever have anything exciting to share anyhow, but here is some free music to tide you over until I return. Stereogum presents: Drive XV, a Tribute to Automatic for the People.

Musings of an Econ PhD: I'm baaaaaaaaaaack!
http://lanephd.blogspot.com/2007/12/im-baaaaaaaaaaack.html
Musings of an Econ PhD. Monday, December 3, 2007. Well, for a moment, anyway. This whole "apply for a job" thing is definitely consuming more of my time than I thought it would. So much to discuss, where to begin. OK, how about my favorite sequence from The Office this season (From "Money")? Ryan: "What I really want is for you to be able to do this, so you can communicate it to your staff, your clients, whomever.". Michael: "mm, ok.". Michael: "It's `whoever', not `whomever.' ". Ryan: "As an object.".
