They say "Curiosity killed the cat" - but I think this would be better suited to "Curiosity fried the brain"...

You have donated 100000 grains of rice.
May you have a lifetime of happiness...

Here are the images to verify:

100K run - 99,980 grains.
100K run - 100,000 grains.
100K run - 100,020 grains

What amazed me was the fact the "counter" doesn't reset after 100,000 grains anymore, all youtube videos I have watched and the Wikipedia article, show or state that the donation counter resets back to zero. One day - maybe just one day - when my curiosity is even more... I will explore the murky depths beyond 100,000 grains.

But for now - 12:30 PM is my sign off. Goodnight all.
- Luke.

It's very clear to me now that I know nothing about art.
I'll avoid that subject in future.
