What do you get when you cross a bad idea with video production skills not seen since 1982? Wolf Quest!

It only takes one misheard cue to completely ruin the point a song was trying to make. But if they just sang a bit clearer... Misheard lyrics, today on the veg.

Charley is a cute and obviously well-loved cat who has cerebellar hypoplasia. Watch the video and then come back and read the next paragraph.

Before you accuse me of posting a video of a cute kitty just because its cute, consider how many cute kitty videos are on YouTube. This one stands out because of the quality of the production. The camera work, scene selection, music, and text narration are all spot-on. Effective storytelling in two minutes. I watched it several times, and also watched the “related videos” on the same subject at YouTube. The contrast in the quality of videography is astounding. Of course, Charley is still a likable star.

And if you laughed when he fell into his bed, rest assured that you are far from the first to do so.

A study in 2000 found that Smart Teens Don’t Have Sex (that’s what they named the report). OK, that’s all well and good that smarter high school students are putting off sex until they are old enough to handle the consequences. But was that the case? Or were smarter teens just not attractive enough, or don’t have the social skills to get any?

A later study tried to pinpoint whether the I.Q. effect lasts past adolescence. Some of the data they studied came from a 2001 survey of students at Wellesley and MIT. This sentence startled me.
