Howcast is a website where users upload videos explaining how to do things.
From how to fry an egg on the sidewalk to how to interpret body language to… well, just about anything… check them out. Man, what would life have been like with this in high school?
And my personal favorite — How to Pretend you’re a real New Yorker:

Vaca was awesome but now I’m sloggin’ through an email inbox stuffed with emails… ugh… so this is a quick post with video…
Bring Back The Uptick Rule!… if it was in place this fall, maybe we wouldn’t have seen the precipitous drop in the financial stocks as the short sellers beat ‘em down. Hat tip to Andrew Sullivan for finding this nifty little video explaining exactly what the Uptick rule is, how it works and why it’s important…

That’s what a psychiatrist in South Carolina has been working on…
Tthe mind altering effects of ecstasy seems to speed the process of a break through when dealing with the debilitating disease that is PTSD. The FDA approved his trial and use of MDMA (ecstasy’s clinical name) and a patient reports profound success which he describes:
It’s an extremely positive thing. I feel so lucky that I got to take part in the project… It’s basically like years of therapy in two or three hours. You can’t understand it until you’ve experienced it.

Elizabeth Gilbert, author of “Eat, Pray, Love”, did a talk on the TED series recently about creativity… about where she thinks it comes from and how she works through her process when dealing with a sometimes elusive character that is creativity.
As a creative person myself, a lot of what she covers in this 19 minutes really resonated with me… what about you? Take a look:

Talk about tough… picking a name for a dog, child (I can imagine), or business is tough stuff, no doubt about it.

First off, no, selling t-shirts is NOT “The Business”.
Now that we’ve got that out of the way…
I’ve always been intrigued by the idea of selling really cool t-shirts online… and from what this blog post shows (that I just stumbled upon), I’m not the only one.

Scroll through the post linked to above and at the bottom are at least 15 different t-shirt affiliate programs that you could become a part of right now.
If the wife and I weren’t so neck deep in the development of our business, which we’ll have more info for you shortly on, I’d jump right in.

The classic Bassomatic. This bit still holds up after all these years… maybe it’s because we’re still bombarded with such infomercials every Saturday and Sunday morning. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Hat tip to Seth Nickerson for the reminder.
