Can you add me to the ping list, please? Is there anything else I can get? I would like to stay involved. I'm also getting some ideas from my daughter's boyfriend. (He is a Marine that was stationed just outside of Fallujah last year and came back home in March) Hoping he will have some ingenious usable ideas.

How did I miss putting you on the ping list?

Well, I'm kind of a wreck lately. My old cat (18 y/o) has been failing for some time and it has taken a lot of my limited energy to keep him going these last months. We finally put him down this last week, and are in mourning now.

BTW, we haven't seen Nemesis. It didn't get really good reviews so we, being OLD original Trekkers, didn't go, or apparently even rent it.

A mind is a terrible thing to waste...especially to senility or exhaustion from lack of sleep being up with the cat.

My husband runs and hides now when I put in another Western to screen it. (Those I haven't seen I watch to see if I want to get them for other bases. I'm currently going through a few VHS movies that aren't out in DVD.)

Hubby'll be so grateful when I pull out Nemesis tomorrow as we are still waiting for a new contact APO for Mosul where it is going.

I'll post the boxes mailed out for Baghdad Engineers and MI Kirkuk tomorrow, and you'll be on the ping list.

We know someone at Tal Afar now, NW Iraq near the Syrian border. I don't know if we will be getting an APO contact through him. If so, I'll ask you to send them something. That's a very dangerous location right now.

If you don't want to wait to see if Tal Afar pans out, we do have a request from Baghdad psyops. They are putting together a party in a box pack for their compadres at smaller locales. And I'll need canned Dole pineapple in its own juice (rec a discount volume grocer) mailed directly to them.

You need to get some flat rate priority boxes if you want to do this, as cans of fruit are heavy.

I'm babbling because I'm still sleep deprived.
Talk with you later!

Cheers!
Patty
