Posted on 11/02/2004 8:05:26 PM PST by MoJo2001
Today's Topic: If you could pick 3 people (living or dead) to have dinner with, who would they be? (Pick 3 People and NO ONE YOU ARE RELATED TO!) Forget the election coverage elsewhere. We're talking about food and conversation today. What persons in history would you like to have dinner with, but those that are not related to you. |
~ I would love to have dinner with these 3 people! ~
Scenario
You have a lot of time on your hands. (Obviously you do have a lot of time on your hands as evidenced by your posting on the subject.) If you could pick 3 people in history to have dinner with, who would they be?
AND NO RELATIVES are allowed at the dinner. We want to know!! |
Now it's your turn to share. What would you do as President? |

OPERATION SEASON'S GREETINGS BEGINS |
In order to bring a "little piece of home" to our Troops overseas, we have joined our resources with ProudPatriots.com to kickoff our campaign.
Below we will explain to you everything you will need to know in order to help us bring some joy and happiness to our Troops.
Thank you to everyone that has already enthusiastically signed up to help. We greatly appreciate everything! |
How can I help?
First, anything that you send is greatly appreciated.Here are some of the items that have been requested: - Phone cards (International)
- Music CD's, any genre including Christian to Rap music
- Books (Paperback or hardcover) **Please steer clear of political books**
- DVD's (any genre of movies, but no pornography)
- Electronic handheld games (can be found at Walmart, Target, or Kmart) **Make sure to send batteries as well**
- Socks (any size, they will fit someone)
- T-shirts (brown for work) **We thought it would be cool if our Troops received a t-shirt from various States to show that the support is nationwide. Or you can make them at home and send them along!
- Portable MP3 or CD players (Maybe several folks can go in together to do this.) - Portable DVD or regular DVD players **Also a project that a group of people could put together** - Any XBox, GameCube, PS2 (Playstation 2) PSOne, DreamCast, Nintendo64, or Gameboy games. (Instead of buying new, you can find many used games locally at game stores. Make sure they aren't scratched, but they are just as good as a new one and cheaper.) -Crossword puzzlebooks or any kind of brain teaser games. - Footballs, Nerf footballs, soccer balls, basketballs, or baseball gloves, baseballs, or frisbees - Christmas decorations - Hanukkah decorations ***FOOD*** The weather is cooling down and therefore, CHOCOLATE is in order. Any homemade cookies, candies, fudge, or brownies are greatly appreciated. We would ask that you package it in a tin with no rattling. Any type of NATURAL Jerky is greatly appreciated as well. NO PORK. Any type of candy bar, hard candy, or the like is also greatly appreciated.
***IMPORTANT*** Please pack everything in baggies. As we get more requests from overseas, we will add to the list. |
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW!!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Most people don't realize just how important a little something from home is to our men and women. Especially during the holiday season. It can be the difference between having another lonely day or having a wonderful holiday.
Items will be collected until November 15th, 2004.
If you would like to make a donation, you can do so at The Proud Patriots (please scroll down to the bottom).
All items can be shipped to the following address:
Proud Patriots 26 Towne Centre Way # 741 Hampton, VA 23666
After the items are received, they will be delivered to NCTAMS LANT DET HRDS where they will be packaged and sent to our various contacts in the region. Most of these items will go to specific units or to one of our designated Chaplains.
Proud Patriots.com was started to help bring outside organizations in to provide care packages for our Troops. We began ProudPatriots.com almost 6 months ago. It has been a labor of love and we are finally getting everything in order to help our Troops in any way we can.
You would probably recognize the members of ProudPatriots.com because they are from our own Canteen. Anyone that is interested in joining our cause, please email us at proudpatriots@proudpatriots.com .
If you would like to print out copies of the letters for your work, business, Church, clubs, or schools, you can do so by clicking on the above logo. Thank you!
If you have any further questions, please FReepmail Kathy In Alaska, Brad's Gramma, HiJinx, or MoJo2001.

Wow, this is tough.
Hmmm....an historical dinner party for four, non-relatives...

Of course, that only covers a small slice of History...
