A Cunning Peasant With a Battleaxe, Fighting Frankendodd
That would be me. At least according to the Google translate version of this profile of me in Neue Zürcher Zeitung. It’s a nice piece, and a fair one (in contrast to some other articles I won’t mention). Except I am really a mild mannered guy. Really!
SWP has an axe? Very shrewd, farmer: http://dict.leo.org/ende/index_de.html#/search=Bauernschl%C3%A4ue&searchLoc=0&resultOrder=basic&multiwordShowSingle=on

I wonder, Craig – have people already contacted you for tips on how to manipulate the commodities market? The capture below the picture says “Craig Pirrong knows how to manipulate commodities markets” 🙂
Otherwise an indeed nice article – neither well-meant nor ill-devised – but rather very matter-of-fact… *like*
Best, Tom

@DrD. Yes, I do! And some think that I am repeatedly grinding it 😛
@Tom. I do know how to manipulate commodity markets, but I put my knowledge to work for the forces of good not evil 😉 The article is matter-of-fact. Too bad that expression doesn’t fit journalism generally.
Hilarious. Loved the drawing of you.

@Charles. LOL. If I only looked that good in real life 😛
You are my hero for your brain and your courage, both of which I find very sexy.
