Text of an email received from my ex-wife:
Subject: Let's say thanks! How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one.
If you go to the web site at letssaythanks.com you can pick out a thank you card and the Xerox Corporation will print it and send it to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq or elsewhere. You can't choose who gets it, but it will go to a member of the armed services. It is FREE and it only takes a second. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of these?
This IS legit. It's on the Xerox web site.
TOPICS: Culture/Society; Foreign Affairs; Miscellaneous; News/Current Events

Do this folks. It won't take more than two minutes of your time. Another way for us to support the troops and you know the soldiers will appreciate it.

Yeah, all the cards are really cute.
I hope all FReepers will take advantage of this. Only takes a sec. And they don't even want your email address.

Is it presumptuous of me to ping you to a vanity I posted?
LOL!

Great idea; thanks for posting this, upchuck.
Who has the military ping list?
I'm going to the web site now.

While the intentions are noble, also check out sites like www.anysoldier.com
You can send mail or even packages to specific soldiers if you want. They list what they would like to receive. A little effort goes a long way.

Do any of you have ping lists where this might be applicable?

Ping.
The artwork is by children, and looks it. But it's nonetheless worthwhile

I tried to send a card, but it requires a state.
I don't know if the Canada ping list would be of much help here.

Is it presumptuous of me to ping you to a vanity I posted? No, of course not. I would have been crushed had you left me out. ;*)
I shipped 8 boxes to Iraq today...does that count?

I wanted to submit my own Thank You. Something along the lines of this, with a message at the bottom.
