Something cool that Xerox is doing ... Please take a moment to go

wonderful of
each of our soldiers (and Marines, of course) received a bunch of
these???

If you go to this web site, www.LetsSayThanks.com you can pick out
a thank
you card. Then Xerox will print it and send it to a soldier
currently serving in Iraq .

You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to some member of
the armed
services.

Have a super day!



So what is your point?


My point is that the "Support the Troops" concept is one where the
troops can actually read a personalized card of support. It really is a
great idea, one I would think you would readily endorse.
Someone sent me that link a week or so ago, and I sent a few and then
did a general distribution to people in my email. I have it set up as
my home page, so I will fill out a new one every time I log on. As
nice as you passing along the words of support are to your son and
friends, an actually card is nice also and if we get enough people to do
it, will impact even more than your son and friends.

www.LetsSayThanks.com

ps - I would recommend you tell your son that everyone you know,
including those in rec.boats pass along their prayers and Godspeed. That
way you have covered your verbal pass along and then you can fill out
the "www.letsaythanks.com", so more soldiers will get warm words of
support during the holiday season.






The only support the troops concept that matters is to work to get them
the hell out of Iraq.
