Misery, email comprehension, year 2000, einstein

Hi there! Here's a random variety of things:

• 7 Reasons the 21st Century is Making You Miserable - an article from Cracked.com that has some nice insights and food for thought (and some not suitable for work/rated R language).
• From that article, I also linked over to this one about why emails are so easily misunderstood. Another interesting one that puts a pretty low rate of actually comprehending emails correctly.
• Paleo-Future has another good find with these 1910 French postcards that depicted what life in the year 2000 would be like.
• Check out this amazing speedpainting of Albert Einstein (4 hours condensed to 3.5 minutes).
  

Tigers, smoke, and the final countdown

Just a mish-mash again today since my posting is so few and far between...

For you Calvin & Hobbes fans, here's a site where you can find every comic strip in the series in order of publication. Very cool, but I don't know if that site has the rights to it, so it may not last forever.

Frozen smoke will change the world says scientists. An interesting article on something that sounds straight out of science fiction.

And I'll end things with another goofy YouTube video. This one is of the worst "Final Countdown" rendition ever; even worse than the one by band Europe (I kid; I actually used to really like that song).
