First, I know this is in the WRONG area. I wanted to be sure that everyone saw it. Xerox is doing a wonderful thing. They are printing cards drawn by children and filling with a pre-chosen message or your own message to US troups serving overseas. These brave young men and women deserve to know that we appreciate them and whether or not you agree about the war, we can all agree we appreciate the soldiers serving.

If you go to this web site, http://www.letssaythanks.com/Home1280.html

you can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq . You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to a member of the armed services. Click on "View all Designs"

How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!!! It is FREE and it only takes a second.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of
these?
Whether you are for or against the war, our soldiers over there need to know we are behind them.

This takes just 10 seconds and it's a wonderful way to say thank you. Please take the time and please take the time to pass it on for others to do. We can never say thank you enough.

Thanks, Jerrilyn, for this information!! Maybe this isn't the "right" place for it, and maybe it is just the right place. If if were not for these young people, and for our husbands, fathers, and grandfathers, we would not have the freedom to collect all our "freebies", y'know? My grandfather was in WWI, my Dad was at Pearl Harbor, my husband was a Marine. I think what Xerox is doing is wonderful, thanks for telling us. Hugs, Marji
