World Food Day is coming October 16th...

On a local note, our Community Food Bank is really struggling here in Tucson. While
the people in need are ever-increasing, their resources are ever-dwindling. This
might be a good time to actually get involved in some way with YOUR local Food Bank.

I didn't fact check the numbers in the picture, but the point is valid regardless.

1. Visit FreeRice.com
It is a great site to test your vocabulary and knowledge of a variety of other subjects. For every correct answer, they donate 10 grains of rice to the WFP. It isn't bullshit. You can have fun and contribute toward the fight against hunger at the same time. There are some fucking tough questions on there!!!

My youngest (of three) daughters discovered it over a year ago (when she was 14) and made her own t-shirt from the rice bowl graphic on the site. She's never touched a spec of meat and is healthy as a kid can get and a 2nd degree black belt (close to testing for third degree). She wont even touch marshmallows now because they contain gelatin.
