Remember Professor Randy Pausch’s inspiring last lecture at Carnegie Mellon University last year. Called ‘How to Live Your Childhood Dreams’, the lecture focused on his life’s journey and the lessons he learned. At the time of the lecture, he had just been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and the lecture was his way of saying goodbye […]

After reading this article today, I really began to wonder something: If you were on a committee to decide whether or not classes in spirituality (as it applies to medical care) should be taught to the med students of today, how would you vote? Yay […]
Everywhere you turn, someone’s writing about their resolutions and goals for 2008.
Or they’re writing about what your 2008 resolutions and goals should be.
I don’t know about you, but I get tired of having to come up with new resolutions every year.
So I’ve decided to create a list of evergreen resolutions that will do for this […]
When we think about our health, we usually focus on things like wrinkles, Omega-3’s and beer bellies. Fiber may be bulky and greens may be grand, but in the scheme of things, I think the kind of life you lead may be much more important. I’m not saying a chipper outlook will squelch diabetes or […]
A simple dose of epsom salts could save 363,000 humans from death every year. Eclampsia (a condition in which a pregnant woman convulses, slips into a coma, and dies) strikes millions every year and kills hundreds of thousands of women and their infants. A life-saving sprinkling of salt costs less than a dollar, which means […]
Middle-aged men are reportedly the most miserable humans of all. According to the study, the “angry young man” stereotype is a myth, as men in their 30s and 40s report greater dissatisfaction than any other group.

So here’s a little love for everyone who has the courage to live, but most especially a couple of […]
Your normal programming has been interrupted for this important public service announcement:
Look like an idiot in 1 easy step: pimp an IQ widget on your blog!
Online IQ tests are a joke (but you know this). Even if they claim to be “real”. They’re not.
Guess what? Mensa is a joke, too.
The vos Savant method will raise […]
Whether it’s eating that extra donut at work or buying that trashy magazine in line at the grocery store, impulses have had their way with us all at one time or another. Well, pit your vices against each other and do something impulsive that’s good for you. Stop reading this and do 20 push ups, […]
“Thinking” by Don Shank
