While none of these little cuties are as famous or adored at Boo, who is so beloved that we can now all go out and pick up our very own stuffed Boo, there is something for everyone on this list. So, which one is your favorite?

There's 32 more of these!

Boo is now available at Nordstrom.

This would be a great way to make up for last year’s Oscar invite snub (see the video below for details). Plus, they could give some perspective and insight on all of the red carpet madness by say, oh, I don’t know, asking, “what aren’t you wearing?” to a scantily clad tween for example.

Fine, I promise to leave the joke-writing and hilarity to the pros.

What do you think? Do you agree that this duo would be amazing on the red carpet? If you need any convincing, check out their web series, Stiller and Meara. First Time on the Internet is my favorite episode.

I think Stiller and Meara would give Sofia Grace and Rosie a run for their money.

Turning 100 is a significant milestone in and of itself, but Dana Jackson decided to also tie the knot on her one hundredth birthday. Jackson met Bill Strauss, 87, some time ago the Western Kentucky Active Day Center. They were reunited at the Rosewood Health Care Center(where they both now live) in Bowling Green, Ky. They got hitched last week.

Jackson has been married three times before, but this was her first wedding with both a wedding dress and an engagement ring. Friends made sure to throw her a bridal shower at a local restaurant, too.

“It’s hard to come by a nice woman,” Stauss said. “I never thought I’d get married again, but I found one that’s just as nice as can be. Treats me good. Like a human being should be treated. It’s rare to find a girl like that.”

Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Strauss!

I hope their story, and this video by Zack Conkle, warms your heart.

Soul Train was a funky forum for emerging talent and a place where young, super-cool dancers in the seventies, eighties and nineties could strut their stuff. It was also one of the longest running syndicated shows on television. Aretha Franklin, Michael Jackson, Chaka Khan, The O’Jays and Gladys Knight & The Pips are just some of the acts who performed on Soul Train.

Cornelius, a former radio disc jockey, hosted, wrote and produced the show. His contribution to popular culture is immense. He was a curator of cool who broke down color barriers. Through the Soul Train Dance Line, Cornelius and his show swiftly influenced fashion, hairstyles and dance moves. Cornelius is also credited with giving much of white America its first glimpse of black culture.

I remember Soul Train as my television oasis.  Growing up in pre-cable suburbia severely limited my tv viewing options. Clicking past sporting events, static, and local news, to finally find Soul Train on a Saturday afternoon was like hitting the jackpot.

Rest in peace, Mr. Cornelius.

The video had such an effect on me that I decided to add to the list.

Here is my #30… Look at things differently.

Someone once told me that whenever you feel stuck, you always have at least three more options than you realize. That advice has freed me many corners I’ve painted myself into in life.

Lost Generation, which was posted to YouTube in 2007 and has been viewed over 15 million times, takes the idea of looking things differently to a beautiful new level.

So, what would you add to the list?

In a study published in the journal Psychological Science, researchers from the University of Western Ontario found that people who watched happy videos increased their problem-solving abilities over those who watched neutral or sad videos. Woo hoo! According to researcher Ruby Nadler, “If you have a project where you want to think innovatively, or you have a problem to carefully consider, being in a positive mood can help you do that.”

As a lover of viral videos (and fuzzy animals doing cute things and laughing babies), this is music to my ears. So, I am going to use this space to celebrate amazing viral videos that deserve another look—and that will increase your productivity, make you smarter, probably more fashionable and more interesting, and at least for a minute or two, happier.

Disclaimer: I have no qualms with liberally using emoticons in a blog that celebrates viral videos, visual splendor and general web cuteness.

Without further ado, I present to you…

BOUNCING BALLS!

It was produced in 2005 by Sony for their Bravia line of TV’s. It’s still awesome, right?  Releasing 250,000 bouncy balls in the streets of San Francisco looks about as amazing as I would have imagined.

Check out this ‘The Making of’ video to see how they pulled it off…
