I have decided there is hardly a sweeter sound in the world than a scantron sheet whisking silently through a scantron machine!

If you would like to have a copy of this game (I also have one for Figurative Language and Sentence Structure) just email me at kim.mcfarland4@gmail.com. I would be glad to shoot a copy your way.
I'll take "Blog Project" for $500. Let's see... the answer is "AWESOME!!!!" To that I say, "What is ~How do you feel when you make your last blog entry? :)
