Three recommended videos:

53 terrible jokes in 4 minutes: some are quite geeky, and while many are groan-inducingly stupid, only a few are offensively so. "How do you make an octopus laugh ten times?" (via)

Nordic Odyssey: a short, atmospheric documentary from The New Yorker of life aboard an Arctic shipping vessel. See also the article that goes with it. (via)

Moonwalk: a video of someone walking across the full moon on a highline between clifftop spires. (via all over)

--and how did I see the Pretty Good Word entry before this one?

Nevermind--I'm looking forward to reading the article about the nordic odyssey. (And seeing the documentary? Maybe not, if it's long...)

ETA: Oh, five minutes! I can handle that :-)

The sorting on my f-list has occasionally turned up wonky for me, too.

And yeah, "short" is the operative word for that one.
