This or That

[vitanola]

Barney Baruch!

O. K. Graham.

Austrian?

As I wrote elsewhere some years ago: "Isn't that where dear old Doctor Pangloss and methodological individualism first met?"

Hayek or Myrdal.

The above is entirely too glib, not at all serious, and not appropriate to the situation.

Real question:

Hayek or Mieses?

Mieses - he's Hayek's original source material - but both are giants. That's a vey nuance "this or that," as most would bucket those two together.

Technical or Fundamental analysis?

 

[vitanola]

Fundamental analysis for mine. I have not the rusk tolerance nor the necessary capital for these sort of investing which can take proper advantage of technical analysis.

Oops! Forgot the "This or That?

Henry George or Piercy Ravenstone?

 

[Trenchfriend]

First.

Roxy Music-album "Avalon" from 1982 or David Bowie-album "Low" from 1976?

 

[vitanola]

First.

Roxy Music-album "Avalon" from 1982 or David Bowie-album "Low" from 1976?

A single taxer, eh?

I don't know about "Roxy Music" from 1982, but do know that "Roxy", S. A. Rothafel, had some pretty fine music at his Capitol Theater in 1928:

Roxy Music-album "Avalon" from 1982 or David Bowie-album "Low" from 1976?

Bowie, but it was a close call.


Jackie Coogan as The Kid with Charlie Chaplin, or Jackie Cooper in the Our Gang comedies?

 

[LizzieMaine]

That's a tough call, but I'll go with Cooper -- "Aw, gee, Mister Kennedy.."

Sitting on the main floor or sitting in the balcony?

 

[Trenchfriend]

Main floor.

Smear Arnika-salve on your ankle or gel with Diclofenac??

 

[Fading Fast]

Gel.

Sit in the center of the row to optimize viewing of the movie or aisle to have some breathing space on one side?

 

[Trenchfriend]

Breathing space.

Using a quark-poultice for your feet or a usual cooling-pack?

Roller coaster or bumper cars?

Roller coaster or bumper cars?

Good one - had to pause and think a bit.

Bumper cars for two reasons:

(1) Roller coasters, like everything else, has succumbed to the bigger-better-louder ethos of our time; whereas, bumper cars are still a humble affair.

(2) One of the nicest experience my girlfriend and I ever had was on a late spring day we took off from work. We went to an old style seaside amusement park and were the only ones on the bumper cars - we were laughing and having such a silly fun time that the operator let us stay on way over the normal time limit. He said, our enjoyment made his day - a very special moment.

Staying with the theme:

Ski ball or Pinball?

 

[Trenchfriend]

First.

Refreshing blue neon-tube in your living-room's cupboard or simple white neon-tube?

 

[vitanola]

No neon at all in my living room, though I do have an old "Zenith Radio" neon sign in the garage. It is red neon.

If I had to choose I would select white.

Atwater Kent or Philco?

 

[2jakes]

Philco.

 

[Fading Fast]

Philco.

The beauty of the carousel just beats out the controlled thrill of the height of the Ferris wheel.

Cotton candy or candy apple (in the world of ridiculously over-sugared amusement park sweets)?

 

[Trenchfriend]

Second!!

Electrical toothbrush or classic?

 

[2jakes]

Classic.

Cotton candy or candy apple (in the world of ridiculously over-sugared amusement park sweets)?

I liked candy apples but now it only reminds me of the visits to the dentist!


Carnival hotdogs or corn-on-the-cob?

 

[Trenchfriend]

Second!

Buying a new TV-device or invest the money in really important things??

 

[2jakes]

Second!
