Roger Ebert on Happiness
![]()
I believe that if, at the end of it all, according to our abilities, we have done something to make others a little happier, and something to make ourselves a little happier, that is about the best we can do. To make others less happy is a crime. To make ourselves unhappy is where all crime starts. We must try to contribute joy to the world. That is true no matter what our problems, our health, our circumstances. We must try. I didn’t always know this, and am happy I lived long enough to find it out. (Source)
12 Billion Year Old Water…

Scientists have found the biggest and oldest reservoir of water ever-so large and so old, it’s almost impossible to describe.
The water is out in space, a place we used to think of as desolate and desert dry, but it’s turning out to be pretty lush.
Researchers found a lake of water so large that it could provide each person on Earth an entire planet’s worth of water-20,000 times over. Yes, so much water out there in space that it could supply each one of us all the water on Earth-Niagara Falls, the Pacific Ocean, the polar ice caps, the puddle in the bottom of the canoe you forgot to flip over-20,000 times over.
"Drop the awe factor, OK, Ocho, Chad, drop the awe factor," Bruschi said. "You’re not a fan, all right? You’re not someone who’s on another team or watching TV. You’re not an analyst. You’re a part of it. They want you to be a part of it." — Jeez, ya try to say something nice… I tried to tell ‘em that #twitterisforthebirds.
