Still looking to get Office Space, Hidalgo, U571, Finding Nemo, Ants, Sea of Love, Chocolat, Three Kings, Hunt for Red October.
I've got a special little box I call the Chick FLick emergency airlift for the gals at Bagram, has Forever Young (Mel Gibson), Moulin Rouge (Ewan McGregor, Nicole Kidman), My Big Fat Greek Wedding, The Last of the Dogmen (Tom Berenger, Barbara Hershey), Grand Canyon (Steve Martin, Alfie Woodard, Kevin Kline) so far.
Mo1 sent the following to our man in Kirkuk:
school supplies for villages near Kirkuk10 packages of 150 sheets of line paper, 3 boxes of Modeling Clay that has 20 colors in each of the them, 10 boxes of 24 Crayola Crayons, 4 Pencil sharpeners, 2 boxes of 36 pencils, 1 box of 144 Golf pencils, 3 packs of 6 tubes glitter, 2 packs of eraser tops, 2 packs of 4 bubble mini tumblers, 2 books of 651 smiley stickers, 1 volley ball.(she thought it was a soccer ball--LOL!)
DVD moviesBlack Beauty, A John Wayne 2 pack of 11 of his early western movies, 2 pack with 16 episodes of the Beverly Hillbillies show, 2 pack with 8 episodes of Bonanza show
email from KIRKUK to Mo1 responding to her letting him know her packages and two packages I'd just sent were on the way.
Wow!!
That is quite a list of supplies for a group that felt that they could not make a significant impact. That is a great amount of school supplies, and if more people would be able to make similar contributions, we would make this a reality for all the children in Kirkuk.
. By the way, this is a great list of new movies that all of you are sending our way, I think the John Wayne pack will be an excellent addition to our library. Every night I have soldiers coming over to pick up movies and I know that their life is more comfortable than it would have been. Thanks for helping make this easier for a lot of people.
V/R,
Sincerely, C******
[It was humbling to realize when he sent us the list of movies that they had now, that of the 42 movies they have or will have soon, that we had sent 36 of them.]

STEVE MARTIN in "The JERK"
STEVE MARTIN in High School/1960
STEVE MARTIN in OSCARS/2003
I will NEVER FORGET this "JERK" being blessed to crown STEVE MARTIN King of our High School's Freshman Class Dance in 1960.
I will NEVER FORGET witnessing STEVE MARTIN blast MICHAEL MOORE at the OSCARS in 2003 after we Freepers had blasted his arrival there with our widely covered GOD BLESS AMERICA Freep.
I will NEVER FORGET how MEL GIBSON's ICON Productions Funding for "F-9/11" was cancelled shortly afterwards.

I have and would be happy to send you copies of Office Space, U571, Finding Nemo, Three Kings, and Hunt for Red October. Also, would you like Seasons 5 and 6 of the TV series Stargate SG-1 (both 5-disk sets) and some other movies and TV shows? Just Freepmail me where you want everything sent.
I'll try my best tomorrow to get the other movies you mentioned, but I know for sure I have the ones I've mentioned so far.
What you are doing to coordinate all of this is fantastic. Thank you.
