from SLATE:
> If you never got very far in Econ 101, the [Wall Street JOURNAL] front
> says help is on the way, in the form of the hot trend of econ textbooks
> that use pop, even pulp, fiction to teach the Dismal Science. For example,
> there's the "Life, Love & Economics" definition of "opportunity cost"--a
> woman telling her boyfriend that it's what you could be doing with "this
> other bimbo."
