Contest for College Money

Saturday, February 9th, 2008

Calling all parents! Here’s a chance to enter the PGP College Education Sweepstakes and win $50,000 for your child’s college education. You have to watch either Guiding Light or As the World Turns on Feb 11th, 13th and 15th and find out who says the opening line of the show. Then enter the info at the web site by the 22th of February (6pm ET to be exact) and you are in. They also have a second prize of a 6 month supply of Pampers diapers. Either one sounds great to me!

You can only enter once and they will hold a drawing for the winner on the Feb 26 (approximately). And you have to get the answers for all three dates right for you to get into the drawing so make sure you know your characters!

That’ll Be HOW MUCH?!

My mom offered to buy cupcakes for my son’s Valentine’s Day party at school.  I want to make it clear, she picked the place to buy them.  It’s a specialty store that just makes cupcakes.  They look very lovely, though I haven’t tried any.

Looks aside, when she put in her order, I looked for pricing.  I’m used to products that have the price right next to them so it was time to leave before my discerning eye finally found it.  Then it was good we were leaving because that eye almost popped out of its socket.

Suffice it to say that Grant wasn’t going to cover it.  Grant and Jackson together wouldn’t have covered it.

That just seems wrong somehow…
