Awesome News: Congratulations to President Barack Obama. I’m pretty sure he’s reading Awesomeology this morning, so I just want to make two quick requests: 1) please be better than the last guy and 2) implement a playoff system for college football like you said on Monday. Actually, if you do nothing else, please just fix college football. K? Thx.

Awesome Videos: I thought the internet loved cats? This guy clearly doesn’t. Or maybe he did, but then it kept scratching the hood of his car he changed his tune. Regardless, I don’t think this cat will ever come around his car again.

Awesome Sites: See, now THIS is how you fight breast cancer! As a male, I can now say that I’m genuinely concerned. I hadn’t thought about it like that before. Someone give me an address where I can send my paychecks for the rest of my life, because this evil must be crushed.

Awesome Links: Do you have a profile at LinkedIn and also shop at Banana Republic? Yeah, I know that’s a weird combo that probably doesn’t apply to a lot of people, but they’re doing a cool promotion…everyone who updates their LinkedIn profile by Nov 22nd will 25% off Banana Republic. You’ll also get entered for a chance to win a $1,000 shopping spree at BR. Which is like 2 or 3 pairs of pants.

Awesome News:This study says overweight women have more sex than normal weight women. Is that because “normal weight women” are more picky, or are they just too weak from hunger to go looking?

Awesome Videos: Hilarious 4 second video of a guy not quite making a ski jump. Watch it 5 times fast, it’s funny each time!

Awesome Videos: The trailer for Fanboys looks awesome. Can. Not. Wait.

Awesome Videos: Only a German would be this stubborn when he’s putting his quad back in the garage.

Awesome Videos: I think that whoever invented the steeplechase was just playing a big practical joke. I think people trip over the hurdles and fall into the pool of water in every single steeplechase race. Watching one must be like a live version of YouTube.

Awesome Videos: Another short cartoon from Seth MacFarlane called “Marital Troubles” It’s funny the first time, but better the second.

Awesome Videos: Here’s why you shouldn’t text while driving…a driver smashes full speed into stopped traffic.

Awesome Products: Check out “Condometric“, a condom with a ruler on it. Although I have a feeling that they would sell more if it were slightly inaccurate in your favor!

Awesome Products: You’ve seen those book vault things before, right? Some super cheesy plastic thing that sticks out like a sore thumb…well check this out…a book vault made of actual books. Amazing hiding place!

Awesome Sites: If you’re looking to buy stuff on Craigslist, Todd’s Alerts might be your best friend.

So you probably know by now that I post a whole bunch of stuff, both here on Awesomeology and on my Twitter page.

And that stuff often includes cool products that I happen to find online.

I just got the idea over this past weekend to put together a holiday gift guide. It’s filled with some of the coolest gift ideas that I could remember from the past year.

You can download it here. Please tell others about it if you like it!

I only wish I had been compiling this guide all year, and that’s what I’ll be doing from now on. Next year’s gift guide is going to blow your mind!

If today’s entries seem a bit sparse, that’s because I’ve been working on an awesome holiday gift guide all weekend (which I’ll post later today). Don’t worry, though…I have a ton of stuff that I’m preparing for Awesomeology tomorrow!

Awesome Videos: Is Lost the best show ever? It’s certainly in my Top 5. Speaking of “5″ here’s a sneak peek at Season 5.

Awesome Sites: Oddity Clothing is a pretty cool new t-shirt site having their grand opening sale.

Awesome News: Yesterday I learned about the Naked Pumpkin Run and it’s one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. Here’s a news story about it, and here are some pictures (not safe for work).

Awesome Links: Remember how the beginning of the Red Sox/Rays game was all messed up by TBS (they had technical difficulties for the first half hour). No one knew what was going on, except those of us who used Twitter. Read this story. You don’t have to use Twitter to know how to search it for stuff like this.

Awesome Videos: This is really amazing. Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” as sung acappella by one guy doing all 64 parts!

Awesome Videos: Continuing the Phillies celebration from yesterday, you don’t have to be a Phillies fan to appreciate this very short short video of the Phillies legendary broadcaster Harry Kalas calling the final pitch. Wheels goes nuts in the background.

Awesome Videos: When celebrating a World Series victory, don’t climb up on a traffic light. You’re just asking to get beaned in the head with a Grey Goose bottle.

Awesome Videos: Learn how to pick up a Playmate, as taught by Alison Waite (a Playmate). There’s actually some really good advice for picking up hot girls here (trust me), but the little skits (between the pieces of advice) are not as funny as they think.

Awesome News: The Beatles songs are coming to Rock Band! I repeat, the Beatles songs are coming to Rock Band!!!

Awesome Products: If you have a kid, there’s no better time than now to teach them about money. And an awesome way to do it is with the Money Savvy Pig, a piggy bank that has separate sections for saving, spending, donating and investing. Very cool idea.

Awesome Videos: Another video in Seth MacFarlane’s Cavalcade of Cartoon Comedy was recently released. It’s “Barry Gibb Rides a Roller Coaster” and it’s marginally funny. It will entertain you for a good 3 seconds.

Awesome Sites: HubDub uses a stock market like system (but with play money) to forecast the outcome of almost everything. People don’t put their money where their mouth is unless they have real confidence, so it’s actually pretty accurate.

Awesome News: Who do you think is better at knowing when their spouse/partner is cheating, men or women? The answer might surprise you.

Awesome Sites: Ever need to get a few people together who live far away? Where should you meet that is an equal drive for everybody? Meet In Between Us is a great site that was designed perfectly to perform that function. Really really well done. Just enter two (or more) addresses and it will provide meeting places in between everybody. Awesome.

Awesome Products: Somebody get this for me for Christmas. Stat. This is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen - a hoodie that holds your beer!!

Awesome Sites: Confess your spending sins and watch other people do the same (on video) at Spendster. The idea is to make you think more before buying stuff and hopefully save more money.

Awesome Links: I’m loving this magnet calendar idea. This was filed under awesome links instead of products, because it doesn’t actually exist, it’s just a concept. Someone please produce it, because I will buy it.

Awesome Links: Here are 8 ways Twitter will change your life. Let me just say, I know a lot of people on Awesomeology don’t really care about Twitter. But if you don’t do anything else, you should get familiar with Twitter Search. It’s light years ahead of Google when it comes to up-to-the-minute information.
