Here's a new trick to help you make better decisions.

 

 

--A study at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh found that if you distract yourself for just TWO minutes before you decide on something, you'll pick the smarter option.

 

 

--You just need a distracting activity that totally engages your mind, and lasts two minutes.  Like listening to an early BEATLES song, playing a turn on "Words With Friends", or eating an ice cream sandwich.

 

 

--The researchers say the two-minute break helps because your conscious mind gets stuck on little details.  But your UNconscious mind sees the bigger picture. 

 

 

--And even when you distract your conscious mind, your unconscious mind keeps working.  So when you get back to making the decision, the smarter pick should be more clear.

The CW confirmed the show’s return with a press release this afternoon, saying that new episodes of Whose Line will air on the network this summer. A premiere date will be announced at a later time.

The new incarnation will be hosted by The Talk host Aisha Tyler, a comedian who also stars on FX’s Archer. Master improvisers Mochrie, Ryan Stiles, and Wayne Brady — all cast members of the original show — will appear in each episode, along with one special guest comedian.

There’s just one thing missing from the revived series: original host, producer, and occasional improviser Drew Carey, who apparently has no involvement in the new Whose Line. When asked for comment, Carey’s rep told EW that she hadn’t heard anything about the revived show. Carey hosted a similar program, Drew Carey’s Improv-A-Ganza, on the Game Show Network in 2011. Both Stiles and Mochrie made frequent appearances on Carey’s series.

Not many guys will admit they were once bed-wetters, but Diddy copped to it on Friday’s “Ellen.”

Diddy and Mark Wahlberg were on the show to hype their new water, AQUAhydrate and Diddy used his once-weak bladder as a selling point.

He said, “I grew up as a Kool-Aid kid. I never drank water. I used to pour a half a pound of sugar into the Kool-Aid.

“Besides it having me bouncing off the walls, I used to be a bed wetter. OK, I guess I’m confessing that I used to be a bed wetter.”

He added, “I went on this quest to stop wetting the bed, and the first day that I had a sleepover and I didn’t wet the bed, it was, like, one of the greatest days of my life.

“It gave me the swagger that I have today because I stopped wetting the bed…There is something about sugar that makes you wet the bed.”

Mark Wahlburg said he might reunite the Funky Bunch....

And the Funky Bunch were ecstatic to hear that! Dj-T and Hector The Booty Inspector said that, quote, "would be amazing."

They did add, though, while they want it to happen, they won't be holding their breath.
