Krugman Wins Nobel

Many of you know Paul Krugman for his factually inaccurate and acerbic Op-Ed in the NY Times. Well, my friends, guess who won the Nobel in Economics? You betcha (wink)--Paul Krugman. His work in labor markets, my friends, garnered him the award, research that really was quite groundbreaking, even to the average hockey mom and Joe Sixpack. If not for his twice weekly column, many journalists believe he would have won the Prize several years ago. Darn right he is intelligent, but perhaps his idelogy rears its head too often for him to be taken seriously. Perhaps the Nobel will change that, my friends.
