Small Change

"Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" set two records this weekend, pulling in $55.5 million on Friday alone (highest one-day sales ever) and then $132 million for the entire weekend, another all-time high. In some small way, I'm glad that I was able to contribute $9.50 toward history. :-)

I love irony!)
