Glass provides a resting place for wine, an orthopedic boot for potential Cinderellas, and a more dramatic exit from 44th floor windows for Bruce Willis. Shatter artistic inhibitions with today's Groupon: for $25, you get a Make & Take class at Art In The Dairy (a $50 value).
A working studio where artists create masterpieces with glass, metal, clay, and lithograph, Art In The Dairy encourages children and adults alike to channel their imaginations to displayable pieces. Owner and instructor Rose Hawley, an experienced glass technician, glass artist, and glass whisperer, has fused her medium of choice into various shapes and utilities for more than 10 years. During the two- to three-hour Make & Take class, Rose's disciples gain deeper insight into glass's properties, behavior, reactions, and anxieties regarding stompy wedding guests, and fashion their own small bowl or 25-square-inch stand-up piece of art. Appointments are available most days, evenings, and weekends.

The Groupon Guide to: Luck
Gamblers, phenomenologists, and horses know that with a can-do spirit and a little know-how, it's easy to make your own luck. Here are some tips:
Flipping a Coin: A flipped quarter seemingly has a 50-50 chance of landing on heads (meaning that every time the quarter is flipped, it doubles in value to 50 cents), but you can actually control which side the coin lands on. Simply say aloud the side you wish it to land on and the sound waves from your voice will alter the coin's trajectory—that's why so many people yell either "heads" or "tails" after flipping.
Rolling the Dice: In dice games, the most desired outcome is landing two dice with a single pip on top of each, called "snake eyes" after the reptile's delicious ocular organs. To make sure you always roll snake eyes, find a beautiful woman to blow on your hand while you shake the dice–her cold breath will fill the pips and weigh down the higher numbers, putting the single pips on top every time.
Spinning the Roulette Wheel: To consistently influence which number your rowlette (the ball) will land on, all that is necessary is to badly want to win with all of your heart. If your intentions are pure, you'll win every time. After picking a winner, it's customary to swallow the rowlette to ensure that no one else steals your luck.
