Mental Floss...

bills itself as "Where knowledge junkies get their fix."  The writers for this magazine must have fun in their office.  The contents are a Jeopardy! lovers' dream (and you know how I love Jeopardy!).  All sorts of crazy facts are partnered with funny cartoons and photos with more facts running along the bottom of the pages.  It's trivia mixed with David Letterman-like top 10 lists.  I love the knowledge quiz in the back where, according to the scoring key, it really doesn't matter how many you get right or wrong.  Check the website for short "Lunchtime Quizzes."  The article in the January/February 2011 issue "Masterpiece #81:  Shirley Jackson's The Lottery" takes a look at the writer's inspiration for a classic short story we all read in high school and another interesting article looks at cow vs. camel milk.  I would call Mental Floss a good choice for light reading.  Laugh a little!
