Tripping on Proglottid
For vocabulary fans, a new site lets you easily text your skills while apparently offering rice to those who need it. Free Rice is simple and direct--given a word, you choose from among four choices to advance in your vocabulary. For every right answer, ten grains of rice are added to a little visual bowl, and after three correct responses, you gain a level. A wrong answer sets you back.
My best level is 46 (yes, with NO CHEATING). Proglottid got me. It's a tapeworm segment. If I'd only known!
Just remember that you have other things to do. It can be captivating.

If only you had taken Zoology this summer with Dr. D -- then you would not have been fooled!
I knew there was a reason I should hang around the Science Center more!
