You know Mario, I really miss the good old days before Ron Paul when we the little people had no idea what we did. All this public scrutiny is so annoying!
"Oh, I knew you would agree. They do make great advisers...and great companions. I'm not the only, either. Did you know that that nice fellow, Mr. Krugman, writes in his NY Times blog based on what they say? They do talk to you, too; you just have to listen. Muffins is doing a superb job in this challenging time."
"It is true...it is. I do often get confused as a former Mouseketeer from the black and white TV days. And, that infernal song just randomly shouted at me - "Do you believe in magic" - like it will jolt my memory. It's quite humorous, however...to mix me up with a place that performs magic."
"Can you believe what they did to Hello Kitty? My goodness, what are they thinking? They can't on a whim make something up like that, and say it's a girl when everybody knows it's a kitty. But, yes, to get back to your other question, we are going to keep it at 2% or whatever it is now days."
"So, then Sgt. Pinback tries to tranquilize the beach-ball alien, and when he shoots, the alien just flies all over the room. He killed it! Then he says 'Hey Guys. How can something be alive if it's just filled with gas?' Goddamn, that tickles me! I show that to the Board of Governors every time they seem a little down. It cheers them up right away!"
Mario, did you hear that Elvira woman, the head of Russia's central bank, studied Robert Higgs? No wonder why Putin is trying to take over the Ukraine!! They're all savages!!
I’ll race you to the bottom
ReplyDeleteYou know Mario, I really miss the good old days before Ron Paul when we the little people had no idea what we did. All this public scrutiny is so annoying!
ReplyDelete"Then, I said 2%, 3%, 100%, 1000% it's all a numbers game anyways. That's what I keep telling Muffins anyways."
ReplyDeleteDraghi says " You have done quite well for a gray haired hobbitt, madame".
ReplyDelete"Yes, you and me both. Would be so nice to hitch a ride with Biden back home, but we still got work to do here on Earth."
ReplyDeleteMeat vs. Motion
ReplyDeleteYellen: Mine is Bigger than yours!
Draghi: It's Quality not Quantity!
Central Bank Humor
ReplyDeleteDragi: "and then I said, "What do you mean deflation?"
Both of them: "Hahahahahahahahah!"
Yellen: "Good one! Yeah, that's a good one!"
"Oh, I knew you would agree. They do make great advisers...and great companions. I'm not the only, either.

ReplyDelete"You know Ms. Yellen I can see right down your blouse, and, as a fellow inflationist, I must point out you're looking rather deflated."
ReplyDelete"Why, mistress chairman, you look even more Troll-like than usual!"
ReplyDelete"Why thank you, Herr Draghi, and I must say Orange Komodo is THE look for you!"
"Did you read that book from Robert Wenzel? Atrocious! Horrible book! Insanely written. And, to think that Tom Woods is coming out with another book."
ReplyDelete"Let's say we get out of here and have a romp a top of some freshly printed money?"
ReplyDelete"Anything you can print ,
ReplyDeleteI can print better.
I can print anything
Better than you.
No, you can't.
Yes, I can. No, you can't.
Yes, I can. No, you can't.
Yes, I can,
Yes, I can!"
"It is true...it is. I do often get confused as a former Mouseketeer from the black and white TV days. And, that infernal song just randomly shouted at me - "Do you believe in magic" - like it will jolt my memory. It's quite humorous, however...to mix me up with a place that performs magic."
ReplyDeleteWell, I think the global economy is in the position for continuing good growth with inflation well in check.
ReplyDeleteDraghi: "So according to Wenzel the Fed flunks. He ripped you guys a new one."
ReplyDeleteYellen: "Yes but the rest of the world grades central banks on a curve Mario."
Whose the Real Queen of QE?
ReplyDelete"Can you believe what they did to Hello Kitty? My goodness, what are they thinking? They can't on a whim make something up like that, and say it's a girl when everybody knows it's a kitty. But, yes, to get back to your other question, we are going to keep it at 2% or whatever it is now days."
ReplyDelete"You feel that, Janet? That's what I call inflation."
ReplyDelete"Hee hee, ready for some quantitative squeezing?"
I'm not the one with the brother Luigi. Don't worry, I love gold coins as much as you love being audited.
ReplyDelete"I spit. Are you kidding me? I don't even swallow my own shit."
ReplyDelete"If I did that, you would deflate, and that would be a disaster."
ReplyDeleteNegative rates on deposits, Mario. Now why didn't I think of that?
ReplyDeletePoster, may we call you Guid-o for short?
DeleteSo, in how many languages can you say "print" Mario?
ReplyDeleteDraghi thinks, "Stop saying 'So, um.' For fuck's sake..."
ReplyDelete"So, then Sgt. Pinback tries to tranquilize the beach-ball alien, and when he shoots, the alien just flies all over the room. He killed it! Then he says 'Hey Guys. How can something be alive if it's just filled with gas?' Goddamn, that tickles me! I show that to the Board of Governors every time they seem a little down. It cheers them up right away!"
ReplyDelete"So, an auditor walks into a bar
ReplyDelete"The bartender says 'We don't serve auditors here'
"The auditor tugs on his collar and says 'That's the same thing they said at the FED!'"
Can you believe the rubes are still believing this Ponzi scheme?
ReplyDelete”So the EU officials believe your BS just like Congress believes mine? Awesome!"
ReplyDelete"Don't be embarrassed. Everyone at Jackson Hole is swapping liquidity."
ReplyDeleteFancy plumbin' new depths with me? I'm Fed up Yellen at the serfs!
ReplyDeleteMurray Rothbard says we are counterfeiters? No, I've never heard of him either. Forget about it.
ReplyDeleteMario, did you hear that Elvira woman, the head of Russia's central bank, studied Robert Higgs? No wonder why Putin is trying to take over the Ukraine!! They're all savages!!
ReplyDeleteMario, you sure do have a pretty mouth. Gives me a woody just looking at it. ehehehehe <---Beavis and Butthead laugh
ReplyDelete"Janet, I told you not to get me anything for my birthday!"
ReplyDelete"I know, that's why I got you this treasury gold certificate."
