I like this photo of The Shrill One, which was taken after he heard the news about his big prize. Just as an aside, the prize amount is 10 million Swedish Krona -- about $1.4MM -- or enough to keep every Republican hack who ever dissed Paul Krugman in Cheetos from now until Sarah Palin blinks.

Congratulations, Professor Krugman.
