61 Things You can do in 60 Seconds
By Matt Blake
We are starting our June contest a little early, because why not? There are countless things you can do in 60 seconds. I’ve come up with a list of 61 things you can do in 60 seconds. While you’re reading if you become inspired (i.e. bored) please look at the right side of the page and sign up for our newsletter! Not only does this enter you into your June contest but it will give you insight into what news The Houndztooth will be releasing, contests and much more! We don’t plan on sending out newsletters more than 3 times a month, but unless there is breaking news for Alabama or the site I would expect the number to be much lower. So why not register and get a chance to win The Houndzooth June contest? I’ll wait 60 seconds while you decide and begin reading our awesome list of things to do…
You can also listen to the audio rundown of this and the introduction of the newest member of the HZT Team, our new Facebook content coordinator!
