> Hey folks.  Does anyone have any recommendations for websites 
> that have humorous or uplifting news stories?  I teach a 
> large (60+) intro class and am trying to do something at the 
> beginning of each class to grab their attention and 
> personalize things a bit.  News stories that are current and 
> timely and that tie in some psychology concept would be 
> great. For example, the other day someone sent me an article 
> about a Mars Hills College student who undressed in the 
> middle of a class when her professor told her that anyone who 
> would disrobe would receive an A. Students thought this was 
> funny and we tied in some psychology concepts related to 
> authority and motivation.  It was an entertaining start to 
> the class.  Anyone have any suggestions for website that have 
> these kinds of stories?
