1:09:14

What's your idea of "hard work"? 40 hours a week at the office? Maybe to some people. 60 hours loading livestock into a gigantic supervillain-style blender? Child's play. Try acting. You work a grueling three months on, nine months off schedule and all you get out of it is tens of millions of dollars. Those are the real heroes. Them and whoever fig…

1:06:03

If you see a bear cub, what do you do? If your answer was anything but "keep your distance", you've got some learning to do. If it was "grab it", we question your sanity.

1:11:10

There are some things you just shouldn't do. Don't run from the cops. Don't support terrorists. Don't eat people. Even if those people appear extra tasty, just don't do it. Chew on a nice tin of tobacco instead. Sure you might get gum cancer, and sure the price may have gone up 25 times since you were a kid, but it's better than the alternative. Ma…

Trade your nails in for a soda and watch some women's basketball, because there's a paradigm shift in college sports. For the first time ever, more people watched the women's games than the men's.
