Today's word is.................. "Fluctuations"
I will never hear or see this word again without thinking of this joke.
I was at my bank today; there was a short line.
There was just one lady in front of me, an Asian lady who was trying to exchange yen for dollars.
It was obvious she was very irritated . . .

Today I only get hunat eighty? Why it change?"
The teller shrugged his shoulders and said, "Fluctuations."
The Asian lady says,
"Fluc you white people too"
