Dialog in the Dark

Had an awesome experience Saturday at Atlantic Station.  At Dialog in the Dark you get to be blind for an hour.  You're actually lead by blind guides in total darkness and carry a cane while you walk through everyday environments.  The first couple of minutes are kind of frightening, but it's amazing how fast your body adapts and how your other senses come alive.  I highly recommend it!

Your vote is worth more than you think!

Besides doing your patriotic duty on Tuesday, voting can get you some discounts and freebies.

Sporting your "I'm a Georgia Voter" sticker will get you a free star-shaped patriotic doughnut with red, white and blue sprinkles from Krispy Kreme.

Need some coffee to go with that doughnut? Take your sticker over toStarbucks for a free 12oz. cup of Joe (and we don't mean Joe the Plumber).

If you've got room for dessert head over to Ben & Jerry's. They are giving away a free scoop of ice-cream to voters between 5:00 p.m and 8:00 p.m. on election night.

If filling up on caffeine and sugar isn't your thing, take the family out for a day at the zoo. Zoo Atlanta is offering half-off admission for voters and their families onelection day.

The Atlanta Business Chronical reports that Atlanta-based barbecue joint Shane's Rib Shack will give you a free meal for voting. Show your sticker after 11:00 a.m. Tuesday for a free "Vote America Meal." The Vote America meal includes three hand-breaded chicken tenders, fries and a 20-ounce drink.

Go out and vote!
