- My passport was finished and mailed out on 11/25, which means it should be here any day (any day before my trip would be perfect). I'm so excited that I can almost live with the cold I've had for three days, a deadline fast approaching amid numerous distractions (like sinus pain, documents and meetings), a sick kid (who sounds like a mini Joe Cocker at the moment), and a growing list of things to pack. In doing some research for the trip, I realized that Dublin has almost the same weather this time of year as D.C., so no new wardrobe will be needed. |

- (This post is an offering to Ashley Benigno's gridblog project. Others here, here, here and here, with MTK.) In economics, the brand is understood as a device for conveying information from seller to buyer. In the curiously monochromatic rendering of classical economic theory, all a brand really exists to do is transmit information about the quality, consistency, and reliability of a given product, one way. This presumably affords the would-be buyer the ability to make more accurate decisions about the true worth of the commodity in question, and therefore what they are willing to offer as a purchase price. |
