Thanks Ben for the Fish!

One of my favorite books is the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series. I know, I'm a geek. Anyways in one of the books, the dolphins, who are in fact aliens from outer space, leave a farewell note to the humans saying "So long and thanks for all the fish".

Today the Fed Central bank lowered the rate by 25 basis points. And the US market rose in spite of high oil prices and ongoing housing slowdown.

So I checked my 401k and it gained $2,093.82 today. So I want to say "Thanks Ben Bernanke for the fish!"
