what is really going on?

I guess if you could call it a free lunch, you might as well call that that. Or maybe arbitrage? Because I'm quietly amused that I learned something new today without incurring any risk or some sort of exchange. In fact, I was about to - to 'negotiate' some sort of deal but I guess I don't have to after all.

Anyway, something is on my mind lately - you could call it to an extent of bothersome but I won't necessary label that connotatively. Happy problem? Perhaps...but I wonder... what is really going on?
