Golden Grades, Onion Chopping and Lost Socks No-More

How this passes in this increasingly obesity-fearing culture is beyond me: McDonald's is advertising on school report cards. The Golden Arches paid the $1,600 cost of printing report-card jackets for the school year in Seminole County, Fla., in exchange for a Happy Meal coupon on the card's cover. Basically, kids who get top grades, have good attendance and good behavior get a free happy meal.

If you need to know how to do just about anything, try this search engine called How Do I?
It accesses all the "how to" sites as well as YouTube for video instruction and lets you decide who you want to trust to teach you how to chop an onion without crying (my brother wore ski goggles over Thanksgiving - there has to be a better way), sharpen a pencil (just double checking) or buy a wedding shower present (my cousin's is this weekend...)

FINALLY someone has figured out how to solve the lost-sock issue that has plagued me for basically my entire life. Throx so brilliantly sells their socks in threes! Now I can kick off my socks in my sleep and not worry if one falls into the oblivion of my under-bed area...yippee.
