I guess there are no Krispy Kreme sales in Spain

Here is my favorite news story of the day:

Spanish Moms Strapped for Cash After Charity Nude Calendar's Poor Sales

Here is the introduction to the article:
Seven middle-aged Spanish moms who posed for a tongue-in-cheek erotic calendar — a fundraiser for their children's tiny, rural school — are now saddled with debt and 5,000 unwanted copies.

When I was in school (both as a student and a teacher) the preferred method of raising money for the school was by selling candy bars, lollipops, wrapping paper, or Krispy Kreme doughnuts. Not once did a group of moms step up and offer to make an erotic calendar!

I continue to be grateful for many things in my life...
