Here is a site where you can send a free postcard to say thank you to someone serving in Iraq. You cannot choose to whom the card will be sent, but it will be sent to a member of the armed services. The site is sponsored by Xerox and is for real. It allows you to choose a postcard design and offers some ready-made messages, but it will also allow you to write your own if you choose. It takes only a minute and might add some encouragement to the day of somebody who needs it. Send the link to your friends!

I decided to write a prisoner instead. www.writeaprisoner.com
Wow, how virtuous.
I decided to write two letters (so far) neither of them to a prisoner. Not that I wouldn't like to say a few things to some prisoners. I worked with one on furlough at a dairy farm in Maine. He was clever and sly. He spent most of his time trying to pull the wool over the farmer's eyes.
I'd like to write letters to prisoners in Cuba or Russia. Trouble is, they wouldn't get them.
So, I'll stick with the soldiers. Without them, we wouldn't be writing letters to anybody.
I'm a better person than all of you. I wrote an orphan, three great-grandmothers, the entire nation of Ethiopia, and Jesus Christ himself.
Hmph. Didn't write to any Islamo-Fascists, didja?
I wrote to Mullah Akhtar Mohammad Osami, but something tells me he won't reply.
