Having fun, learning, and helping the world...

I'm throwing up a link in the sidebar to the website www.FreeRice.org. It's a vocabulary quiz, and everytime you get a word right the sponsers of the website donate 20 grains of rice through the UN World Food Program. I found out about this through People magazine of all places. It's pretty easy and a great way to kill some time. I heartily recommend checking it out. Just this morning I managed to donate over 5000 grains of rice and I learned some new words in the process!

this is pretty cool. i saw it on tv and learned that schools do this so the kids learn and also see that they are making a difference for unfortunate children around the world.

Cool! I donated some rice and learned some new words (not that I'll remember them or anything)
