    “moonflation”

    Hahahahaha. I gotta hand it to Rob. He has single-handedly generated a new vocabulary on this site.

    You haven’t heard?? Rob is writing an article on his “Moonface consumer driver theory of price formation” and submitting it to the Financial Times.

  2. I never got stitches as a kid. But I was diagnostician for my mother. “Nah, this one doesn’t need stitches, only a butterfly.” My brothers were unbelievable. Especially one, who was extremely agressive and a risk taker. His nickname was “Rodney the rock”. He had 6 pack abs at 4 years old. He was also always flying out of trees and getting cuts, sprains, bruises from sports. I kind of remember him with a giant egg on his forehead where somebody beaned him with a ball. It was relentless. He fell out of a window once, three stories, and was unharmed. (fell on mushy spongy spring grass). They wrote him up in the newspaper (big stupid mug smiling eating ice cream).

    That one really floored my mother. She sat down on the couch and started crying. I had to call 911 for an ambulence. For my brother, that is (though she probably could have used one).
