1. George Carlin talks about stuff -- video from 1986. Perhaps not his greatest sketch, but I enjoyed it.
2. Three basic money groups -- some basic personal finance advice that seemed very intuitive once I'd read it, yet isn't something I'd come up with on my own.
3. Horrifying 12-day Cool Whip experiment -- you may never eat Cool Whip again. Really.
4. Sound advice for winning on a game show -- why, when given the chance, you should always switch doors. Oddly enough, I was having a discussion on exactly this topic with Marc's family a few weeks ago. I couldn't explain it nearly as well as these videos can.
5. Mini workouts you can do at your desk -- I was actually looking for this sort of list for a while. I'm definitely going to be using it in the future.
6. Gross Domestic Product -- a 30-second Adbusters commercial, which perfectly summarizes why I hate macroeconomics.
7. The best advice my karate teacher ever gave me -- on this list mostly because I wanted to save a link to the anecdote at the end of the article, which illustrates the power of focusing your energy.
8. 100 tiny tips to improve your mood -- exactly what the title sounds like. Even reading through it makes me happier.
