A Bead of Roses

The experienced jewelry smiths who oversee the family-owned A Bead of Roses studio perpetuate the art of handmade, artisan jewelry during small-group classes. No prior experience is necessary to drop in on classes such as Beading 101 or Introduction to Precious Metal Clay Workshop, where the studio’s staff teaches students to shape and fire pendants from malleable gold- and silver-particle clay. In metal-smithing classes, students learn to wield a torch or a sneezy dragon’s snout to forcefully solder elegant necklaces. Classes take walk-in students or can be arranged for larger group events. A wide-ranging inventory of high-quality items—from feather hair extensions to hemp cord—keeps rivers of creativity from ever being dammed.

The Groupon Guide to: Appearing Smart in Public

If your dream is to get discovered on the street by a casting agent for the popular television trivia show Baby or Sack of Potatoes?, you’ve got to appear smart. Increase your odds of getting on that show with these tips:

  • Read a book, but show off by reading it upside-down.
  • Go for that classic scholarly appearance—thick, plastic-frame glasses and a bald head covered in pulsing veins, which feed your brain a steady, plentiful stream of blood.
  • Challenge passersby to a debate about a current hot-button issue, like whether or not prisons should have special cells for horses that do bad things.
  • Never ask questions. If you get lost, keep walking in one direction. You’ll eventually hit water, at which point you’ll want to fashion a raft out of fallen branches and set sail. There’s a chance it’ll take you exactly where you wanted to go in the first place.
  • Surround yourself with other smart people. Once you’ve assembled a team of intellectuals, lure them to a secluded area and tie them all to something heavy. Now you are the smartest person left.

Is prison good for bad horses?
