Unique Fund Raising Idea by Jack Wheadon Don’t you think that people are tired of dishing out money for things they don’t really need? Their child comes home from school, yet again, with boxes of ‘old fashioned cookies’, or a box of assorted chocolates to sell to friends and family. It’s understandable, the school needs money.

Ringtones – Where Did Those Tones Come From? by Ted Belfour These days cell phones are ubiquitous – almost everybody has one.
