Heading off to the Econ Nerd Conference

I'm heading off to the Annual Econ Nerd Conference, so wanted to apologize in advance for the lack of posting over the past two weeks and over the up-coming days.

One of my New Year's Resolutions is to post "early and often" in anticipation of this glorious upcoming election.
