Tax-sheltered whole life insurance or even taxable bonds in a brokerage account are probably going to get you a better rate than your 4% partially deductible mortgage payment, plus you're building real money instead of equity in an asset that doesn't always appreciate.

@PrairieMoon: Yes. Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but I think Twitter gets cluttered very very quickly, unless you actually visit Twitter.com to check out your feed.

the bit.ly one is awesome

@ridaleadleco: Yes. I got to be Shermy in my high school's production of "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown." It's not as glamorous as you would think.

@snugglybear: Also, it seems that many of those people would have been reading on a Kindle or iPad for the first time. I bet it takes hours rather than minutes to read on an e-device at top speeds.

Uh, I learned about sleep debt in Health Psychology. You do have a sleep 'bank.' It's not anything that goes on for months or years, but if you go four or five days without sleeping enough it's a lot different than if you just go two nights without much sleep.

Keep it on the DL Lifehacker. Geez, now THEY know.

@Ripley Maddock: Keystone. It's what my roommate did. (Actually he preferred Lucky Charms)

Putting your vodka in the freezer is soooo much easier
