Chick’s Grill celebrates the egg’s most famous progeny with the Signature Chicken Meal, a combo of unusual size culled from a menu of specialty chicken dishes and American fare. Calibrated for coops of up six diners, each meal begins with your choice of appetizer, as fried pickles, grilled shrimp, and chicken nachos tease taste buds and taunt taste enemies. Diners then munch their choice of entrées, including any Chick’s Favorite chicken entrée, chicken sandwich, burger, or sandwiches from the “Not Into Chick’s” menu. Chefs slather up to 12 deep-fried wings in sauce before baking them to golden perfection, completely eliminating any chance of them flying off to migrate. The traditional chicken parm pairs breaded chicken with melted provolone and homebrewed marinara, while the Pittsburgh-style chicken sandwich sublets bun real estate to creamy coleslaw and crisp fries. Between bites, diners consult five wall-mounted HDTVs, tracking breaking sports happenings or watching five nightly newscasts at once.

The Groupon Guide to: Cover Blurbs
Many would-be authors are inspired by Ender's Game—the old literary game of writing the ending first—but few realize there is content after the ending that will affect book sales more directly: your cover blurbs. Here's a guide to getting the quote that will blurb your book right off the shelves:
• Aim High: Your parents, pastor, or parakeet would probably be pleased to praise your potboiler in print, but it will sound more impressive coming from Abel Thrice—acclaimed author of The Vampire Mysteries and Nightblood: Mysteries Set in the Universe of The Vampire Mysteries.
• Bigger Is Better: You want your cover blurb to be printed much larger than the interior typeface, preferably in raised, embossed, metallic candy-apple red letters. When choosing a font size, a good rule of thumb is looking at old newspaper headlines about various airship disasters.
• Use Swears: If anyone argues against this eye-catching approach, using swears will work on them as well.
