Berkeley econ skit

The berkeley skits were particularly awesome this year. This Kanye-inspired one was my favorite. The best part is when Paul Ruud and the other guy (whom I don't recognize) shoot the robots with laser beams from their guitars. I also particularly identified with the theme of this song. (hattip to mankiw)

David Card is the other guy. I also think the bit with Brad DeLong barely looking up from his computer is hilarious. People who know him would say he would barely look up from his computer if godzilla were walking down the hall.

I am glad that you like the video, as we did put in a lot of effort :)

While David Card's photo was featured in the video, the "other guy" that is shooting laser is Jim Powell, another econometrics professor at the economics department of Berkeley.
