My first question is how does one acquire a mises.com email address? I recently heard that if one has a mises.org community account and posts in the forums, they can somehow acquire a nifty @mises.com attached to their name.

Dear Jeffery Tucker,
As you have the best music as introductions to your youtube videos, I assume you are the de facto artistic director of the LvMI. As such, I believe this request should be directed towards you. Make LvMI cufflinks and sell them to me.
Sincerely,
Jackson
it's 3:43 AM Central. I'm staring at 15 pages of a research proposal. I have no will to finish the last three or four pages and fix the formatting. In stead, I wrote this:
*ahem* Damn it feels good to be a gangsta Automatin' orange accounts to milk t-bills Although once I was a social-libertarian Now I'm on kitco makin' deals Damn it feels good to be a gangsta I mean one that you don't really know Browsin' with my broker, sniping bailout assets And turnin' all my loot into gold Now gangsta-praxeologists come in all shapes and colors Some got ridiculed in the past But these gangstas here are the smart ones Studied marginal utility and they'll last And all I gotta say to you Wannabe, gonnabe, rent-seeking', bailout-takin' prankstas Cuz when dollar takes a dive what the fuck you gonna do Damn it feels good to be a gangsta .

Cuff links sound nice but hardly anyone wears those things anymore.
Write me for an email address
tucker@mises.com

as I'm not getting exactly what I want, when I want it, I'm going to call this a market failure and petition the government for free mises cuff links.
haha we're ENTITLED to free Mises cuff links.

How about some Mises bow ties...???

I just bought some cuff links today. I would buy Mises.org cuff links too but I admit that I would only buy one pair.

I also support cuff links. Ones as big as jay bird eggs. They would go nicely with my alligator hide shoes.
Jeff says his email is tucker@mises.com. Is that a mistake? I thought it was a .org address. Then again, mises.com directs you to the community page. I never know what to think.
It's really both.
Now, you folks can't really be serious about cuff links. I mean, it takes like 2 minutes to put on a shirt with cuff links. It taks 5 seconds to button a cuff. I just cannot believe that there is any real future to cuff links. It seems like a self-conscious anarchronism, like sock garters or pocketwatches.
Please tell me you aren't serious!
But then again, what do I know about fashion!
Hey, if one is going to take on the state, they might as well look good doing it....
Jeffrey, I sent you an email about getting an email address a week or so ago. I never did hear back.
oh I made that. I guess it means that I forgot to notify you. I'll do that now

I am as serious as a pointless bauble.
About 1/2 the shirts I get now require cuff links. I spent $40 on an emergency pair last night because I had to get something to match a tie I had and the second hand ones I bought years ago were too "flashy" and the free ones they give you that look like little pom poms just did not cut it.
The company I am contracting for is throwing a Christmas party tonight and I am certain I will not be the only one there with over-priced cufflinks that match his tie.
And now, a word from the auto man
Damn it feels good to be a gangstaGettin' voted to the head of the placeEverything lookin' horrid to the people of the worldBut I'm bankin' on some lobbying' graceWell every now and then I have to beg and plead and crySo their tough rhetoric rings trueThey add conditions to my aid demandsSo they can tax you-know-whoSo voters of the world keep supporting meThough I don't plan to change my carsCompetition better not upset meOr I'll get a tarriff to stop 'em at the shoreTo all you union boys who're making the noise I'd sincerely like to thank you'Cause it's a matter of time until they bail us outAnd damn it feels good to be a gangsta

Wow, ok. Maybe I'm out of touch. Can anyone else help with field research in this area? We need cufflink sightings, including shirts in stores.
Thanks Jeffrey!

About half the shirts I wear require cufflinks. In the young GQ crowd, cufflinks are all the rage now, they've replaced ties as the accessory to wear. Ties are pointless (why do I need to cover my buttons?) Cufflinks are a way to make your shirt personal without shoving it in people's face. I know a button is easier, but you cannot deny that when you see a guy with his cufflinks just showing below his jacket sleeve, you think that he looks good.
ok, this is really out of hand. But now that I think about it, Doug French wears cufflinks. I'll send this thread to him.
