got a couple minutes to waste? feed the hungry!

so this man, john breen, in indiana, has built a little vocabulary building website. and for every word you get right, his corporate sponsors donate rice to the UN world food program! hooray! so go to freerice.com and kill some time! feed some people - AND TELL A FRIEND! he's already fed thousands of people, just through something he started as a way to get his son to study for the SATs! this is what thinking outside the box gets you, my friends. now if you'll excuse me, i'm going to go see just how fine my vocabulary really is!

**update** my best vocab level before i went to bed was 49 ... and i got over 9000 rice grains...

Thanks...I really needed the fatigue (that will result from my inability to extricate myself to go to bed) to remind me that I'm a big fat nerd...
