Find why Homer Simpson's mom abandoned him: "The free-wheeling 1960's had come and gone. There just had to be more to life than doing laundry, raising a family and kissing the husband goodbye every day as he left for work. What's a housewife to do? How about just chuck it all and leave? According to this classic '60 Minutes' report, thousands of women were doing just that. Mike Wallace went to Seattle to visit one family divided, in a report loaded with rap sessions, women's lib, and the notion of just letting it all hang out."

That's like trying to train your cat to do your taxes—a waste of time and money. Wouldn't it make more sense to teach B students something useful, like entrepreneurship?"

7 Best Sources of Free Music for Video or Podcast

7 Best Sources of Free Music for Video or Podcast: "The one thing though, that takes a video or podcast from 'obviously amateur' to the next level of professionalism is music. You’ll almost certainly want a musical theme, something to mark the beginning and end of your show. And you might use a musical loop — a piece of music that circles around and never ends — as bed music, to play softly under your podcast or video to set a mood and cover silences, and if your podcast is something more dramatic than a simple conversation, then you might want special music to work like a movie soundtrack."

The pears inside bottles of brandy and Poire William are actually grown inside those bottles, and you can see the surreal sight of them hanging off trees in orchards. (Some bargain brandies resort to a screw-off base to the bottle, but that’s cheating.)"

Learn How To Code

Learn How To Code: "Originally the talk started as a thought experiment around removing unnecessary inefficiency from startups trying to act too much like 'real' businesses by functionalizing too early. To that end, I took a pretty liberal definition of what 'coding' was. The gist though— to get everyone involved in the mechanics of how the product/service is built— has graduated to almost conventional wisdom at least among the most capital efficient consumer Internet/SaaS businesses that I've seen over the last year. It's funny to me one year after mentioning Y Combinator as an interesting 'experiment' that its become a legitimate source of some really high quality startups with relatively low inefficiencies in the maker loop between users and product. You could see this even back a year ago— but 2010 really proved to be YC's coming out year."
