Some Chicago Boyz know each other from student days at the University of Chicago. Others are Chicago boys in spirit. The blog name is also intended as a good-humored gesture of admiration for distinguished Chicago School economists and fellow travelers.

I think its quite sexist to state that women like flowers more than men, although the tradition of giving flowers to a woman as a courtship ritual is well ingrained into society and lends a lot to this belief. But for me as a man, I enjoy cultivating something that will grow large and beautiful one day. For me it is more about that than having or making something that simply looks “pretty”.
