My Uncle already posted about this. That's how I learned of it. Both a way to improve your vocabulary, and feed the hungry. Check it out. FreeRice started on October the 7th. They gave 830 grains of rice away. On the 4th of November, they gave away 48,038,530 grains of rice. The running total thus far is 729,030,460 grains of rice. The companies who are advertising on the site, are the ones paying for the rice to be distributed. Let's all pitch in, and donate some rice, while increasing our vocabulary. So far, I have donated 1,400 grains of rice, while rating my vocabulary at 42. Not bad. How have you rated?
If I can remember to, I will revisit this topic at a later date to remind us all to donate some rice.

A friend of mine at work told me about this, said he couldn't stop and ended up donating something like 4000 grains of rice in one sitting. Exciting.
And I'm rated at about 35.
Sweetness. I like getting to see words that I wouldn't ordinarily see. I don't know a LOT of them.
you should've seen Dad and James sitting at the computer trying to guess words (Dad probably knew them all, actually haha). Some of my friends are addicted too.
oh and HEY. I update my blog now. Comment, people.
