This forward-looking attitude, she states, has prompted a $60,600 grant under the Federal Education Professions Development Act for the development of courses for on-campus use of independent study, combined with videotaped lectures and student-instructor tutorials.

1. Pipe broken?
No, I'm trying to find where I stashed some dough.
2. That's where you keep your money?
Sometimes I put it in the flower pot.
3. What's wrong with the bank?
I'd only take it right out again.
4. But that's what you're doing now.
Not quite. The beauty of my system is that I usually can't find where I put it.
5. I think you'd be a lot better off putting some of your dough into Living Insurance from Equitable. It not only gives you and the family you're going to have a lifetime of protection, it also builds cash values you can use for emergencies, opportunities, or even retirement.
I wonder if it could be with the french fries?
