Procrastination + Charity

There is a nice vocab builder at FreeRice.com.  These words get hard, and the premise is kind of cute.  They'll donate twenty grains (yes, grains) of rice for every word you get correct.  It's a non-profit, and honestly, you don't even see that ads while playing.  It also learns, and so provides a pretty accurate measure of your vocabulary level.  Play it once and post your level/grains in the comments!  Before you play, go to the settings and force it to start at level one.  I died on "anserine" which, apparently, means "goose-like".  Level: 42 Grains: 2540
