I was playing with this the other night, ended up giving a few thousand grains and was at vocal level 37. Nice distraction while zoning to the idiot box.

My girlfriend is addicted to this game.It's pretty fun, for a worthy cause and it helps her build her vocabulary - which will come in handy to prepare her for the up-coming GRE (grad school). Give it a try.

OK :)
90 grains of rice, back to work now ;)

My Gawd Rory, you coulda give 100! ( My record is 1200!) My son is getting good at the game - maybe learning and helping at the same time!

Was that you I saw on the news tonight talking about installing security in homes????


(BTW: I tried to send you a PM or page, but I wasn't allowed! Still need that technological advice!)

yall are easily pleased .. :D
10 to 1 the site is a scam .. :sailing:



Aw come on Rory, you of all people should have figured this out all ready. Even if they gave away a couple of billion grains of rice, it is just 100 pounds which is one of those bags and costs less than $20. In the meantime, did you notice that the Google ads change every time you answer. Those are high-paying click-throughs and the longer you can keep someone on your site, the better the chance of getting an ad that they will click on. So less than $20 of rice per month (if that), gets them a few thousand dollars in click through revenue. Neat idea.

And anything we can do to improve people's vocabulary in this day and age can only be a good thing!
