I was actually about to comment on that myself, as I finished it up here. The ending was pretty witty indeed.

We definitely don't want to be seen as "weak and shit" around here. Starnum don't take no pay cuts, you dig? :P

His book Freakonomics is really interesting too. Other topics include how swimming pools are more dangerous than guns, how sumo wrestlers throw fights and how legalising abortion reduces your crime rate.

That was very interesting. In fact, I went to that TEN site and spent hours looking at much of the stuff. Very interesting stuff indeed. 8)
