things that have made me smile lately:

big strong security guys covered in confetti at the Flaming Lips concert in Tivoli

Buddhist monks draped in orange scarfs walking down the stairs in a Burger King after a snack

Canoe rower in the Olympics with black nailpaint on

A stranger lighting a stranger's cigarette because she's having problems with her matches

a bus driver giving me half my money back just because he felt like it
