Good Karma

In one of my previous posts, I took a shot at Amazon, but said some nice things as well. Call it a coincidence, but just yesterday (Jan 4th) I placed an order with Amazon, chose Super Saver Shipping (which is free, but takes 5-10 days to arrive) and whaddaya know, I come home today (Jan 5) and there's a box waiting for me! No hard feelings!

So now I've got my copy of John Battelle's The Search, so I can learn all about being an arbitrageur. To add a bit of contrast, I also ordered Fight Club on DVD (I needed an extra $10 for the free shipping; it was that or O Brother, Where Art Thou?). Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you an arbitrageur.
