Ozzy gurl, you're suggestions for personal action after lambasting me for complaining have been noticably absent and it troubles me. Why would you attack me for taking no action and then take none yourself? I did think of something though, thanks to you. Matt Bramanti, a blogger out of Houston, has a brother over in Iraq. He has decided to adopt his brother's unit. I will be adopting a Spc. Robinson from over there to exchange letters and send packages to. No matter what your (not you personally, ozzy gurl, but everybody on savingadvice.com) stance is on the war, all of our troops deserve to be supported because they are fighting for everybody's freedom stateside. Matt has given me permission to post the above link for anybody who wants to contact him and join in on the fun. If you're intersted, his email address is in the link and you can drop him a line. There's also a link in comment #14 below the story for ordering USPS flat rate boxes to ship to Iraq. Come one, come all!
