I got an email from my step-niece this weekend. Sam, whom I’ve never met, is a soldier in the middle east somewhere.  Somehow, she’d gotten my email from someone back home who knew I  am in Korea. Apparently, she’d lost her contacts in Korea who were able to send her some of the spicy Ramen noodle soup. I told her I’d send her some and today I shipped out four cases of the stuff to her.  I also sent along a decent pair of stainless steel chopsticks.  It’s cheap stuff, and it costs more to ship than to buy.  I was happy to oblige.

I may be vehemently against the war in there, but I’ve never been anti-troops. Those men and women in the military work hard and do great things.
