Gigonomics, is that generating income from working different gigs....?
A wild shot, I know.

-"Delicious incongruity."
I LIKE THIS. Exactly.

-Gigonomics: making a living out of gigs. People who engage in a number of gigs to bring in enough income for their households.

-I don't think she'd go so far as to mess with Dante or Hegel, for that matter.

Is the publication any good, by the way?
And this is a bit off the subject here, but what did you think of that Maddow skit on SNL last week?
