Nathan Kleffman August 12, 2009 at 2:18 pm: You’ve been incredibly famous in my book ever since I read Defending the Undefendable. It’s helped me avoid the middle road to serfdom and stick to my principles – even when I’m defending slum lords and exploiters of child labor.
Ryan August 12, 2009 at 2:58 pm: Walter Block for un-President!
2nd Amendment August 12, 2009 at 3:34 pm: I’d rather be a rich nobody than a famous poor.
Matthew Whiseant August 12, 2009 at 3:51 pm: Anything that might give people a way to find this site is a good thing.
John M August 12, 2009 at 4:01 pm: This is news? Since when have you not been famous?
Josh Hanson August 12, 2009 at 6:02 pm: Just yesterday I was commenting about the fact that when I hear the word, “celebrity”, Walter Block comes to mind. It’s only a matter of time before we see him on the cover of the tabloids for dating Jennifer Aniston.
Russ August 12, 2009 at 7:45 pm: I heard they were considering Walter Block as the super-genius villain Egghead for the next Batman movie.
