Simon just finished mopping the floor when the kitten comes in and makes a mess. Sounds like the setup for a Simon’s Cat video!
Well, that’s just life when you have pets. Or children. See more Simon’s Cat videos, and check out Simon Tofield’s website for more.
Paul Reubens has a rather unusual sense of style and a crazy collection of cool stuff, some of which has been featured in his fantastic films and far out TV show.
He's also a visionary inventor whose creations make the world a much more fun place.
But for some reason Paul doesn't get many chances to promote anything but Pee-Wee when he goes on talk shows, so the unveiling of his line of wigs for kids on Conan is a rare delight.
A beehive hairdo for kids...Paul's gonna make millions!

The Arkansas School for the Deaf selected a leopard as a mascot for their athletic teams back in 1941. Since then, the athletes have been the Arkansas School for the Deaf Leopards. The British band Def Leppard played a concert in Little Rock last night and made some time before the show to meet with students of the school.
The group posed for photos holding a replica of the school's scoreboard and in front of a banner emblazoned with the band's name. The band later posted them on social media with the caption "Arkansas Deaf Leopards and #DefLeppard."
The meeting came about after an online petition drew nearly 1,500 signatures in support.
A good time was had by all. Also, contrary to what you may have heard, the Arkansas School for the Blind does not call their athletic team the Melons. -via reddit

When you go to a hospital to have a baby, you probably don’t have a clue how much it will cost. For one thing, most people don’t have a choice of hospitals. You go to the one your insurance will cover, and where your doctor has privileges. Or the only hospital in town. They charge what they want, and knowing won't change that. Johnny Harris and his wife Isabel wanted to get an idea of what the bill might be beforehand, but ran into problems -no one wanted to quote any numbers. It’s a secret!
Luckily, they had insurance, and the insurance company haggled the bill down after the birth. A person without insurance would be stuck with the entire bill, and hospitals rarely negotiate prices with individuals. The “good” news is that if they think you won’t be able to pay the bill, you’ll be sent home within 24 hours. As expected, the comments under this video are full of Europeans shocked that Americans have to pay to have a baby. -via Viral Viral Videos
Depression level sadness makes people feel small and critter-like, as they wallow in a sea of dark thoughts and dour moods with warm blanket to crawl under and music that matches thier mood.
But this is obviously not a good way to handle a visit from the Boohoo Blues, so those who have learned to live and love the depressed find ways to lighten their mood that don't involve hugging.
Those who want to help the depressed, and anyone looking for a cure to sadness, should check out this comic by YMB/Yasmin F and see how ten easy steps can make even the most gloomy person crack a smile!
