On a personal note...
I sit next to a former Marine @ work. He has several buddies in Iraq that he exchanges emails with. One of them got approval to mount a license plate on the front of the Humvee and asked if we could ship a number "3" plate to him. We trotted out to the mall & picked up plates & stickers of Dale & Jr and sent them over the Iraq. No pictures yet, bey we got an emial that there are two Humvees with a "3" and "8" on them traveling around. Apparently they have been well received. Truth be told, I think I got just as excited about it as my buddies friends did. If I get a digital shot I'll post it here.
We also collect the neighbors Sunday papers & send them over along with used paperbacks. Apparently they get passed around and fully read. I wonder if the editorials piss them off as much as used to irritate me before I cancelled the paper.
Not sure what the 3 and the 8 stand for. Is it related to NASCAR?
I'll put you on the permanent ping list so you can follow the fun here.
Feel free to post news from the front here, and special requests.
Cheers!
