The Nobel Prize in Economics was awarded to three American economists today for creating and developing a sophisticated explanation of the interaction among individuals, markets and institutions.

But they can't explain the fact that my day today was highlighted by a once in a lifetime phenomenon. I left my office in midtown New York and grabbed a soup & sandwich for lunch at the Hale & Hearty on 54th street. The total came to something and 4 cents and the woman annoyingly returned a handful of change tallying 96 cents. I lugged it around all day until on my way home I stopped in my corner store in the East Village to buy a magazine and a jar of peanut butter. The cost? $10.96!!! I threw down a ten, scooped the 96 friggin' cents from my pocket and smiled all the way home.
Joy comes in the smallest ways...
