My Happiness Project: Week 19

For the second week of February I will continue on with my goal of learning as much as possible.  Last week I talked about signing up for an email where I'd receive an interesting random fact of the day.  I found two sites worth checking out.  The first one is called TodayIFoundOut.com and the second one is called MentalFloss.com. 

Here are some of the facts that I found interesting:

• The Eiffel Tower leans slightly toward the shade on sunny days.
• It is estimated that 1 out of every 55 Canadian women will give birth in their car on the way to the hospital.
  
• Grumpy Cat's lawyer also represents the intellectual property rights of Mike Tyson's face tattoo.
• Twitter's bird logo is named Larry, for Larry Bird.
• All California license plates are made in prisons.

And for this week I am going to spend some time listening to podcasts from Stuff You Should Know on HowStuffWorks.com.  I am already subscribed to their podcast, so I've got a lot of options to choose from.

Here are the ones I'm thinking of listening to:

• Your Limb is Torn Off - Now What?
• How Underwater Tunnels Work
• How Chocolate Works
• What's With the Winchester Mystery House?
• How Much Money is in the World?
• How Ejection Seats Work
• How Police Chases Work

As you can see, there is a wide variety of topics to listen to.  Now that I've picked out seven different podcasts, I have something to listen to every day!

If you've ever listened to the Stuff You Should Know podcasts, let me know what some of your favorites are.  I'd like some recommendations for future listening!
