[CitizenHelper]

This is my first post on this site and I am inviting my fellow American's - Republicans, Democrats and Independents to visit Citizens Helping Heroes' website to learn more about our organization and its mission to honor, entertain and support military personnel and their families http://www.citizenshelpingheroes.org

CHH just finished hosting the Heroes Red, White & Blue Inagural Ball last month here in Washington, DC. It was a very speacial evening honoring wounded military personnel from Bethesda Naval Hospital and Walter Reed Medical Center.

It was an unoffical ball, but saw Sec. Def. Rumsfeld, Dep. Sec. Wolofwitz, Gen. Myers, Gen. Pace and Sec. Princippi in attendance for an evening to celebrate democracy and entertain America's Heroes.

Our next event is scheduled for this Spring where we will basically be taking this same message, show and mission to primetime network televison. We can not do it alone and welcome your support. Thank you.

Troops wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan were treated here last night to a once-in-a-lifetime experience: an inaugural ball in their honor, with a big lineup of celebrities, entertainers and defense brass thanking them for their sacrifices.

That's great to hear, the troops deserve all the support we can give them.

Welcome to FR. Great 1st thread.

I'm told that there is a huge rock near a gravel pit on Hwy.25 in rural Iowa. For generations, kids have painted slogans, names, and obscenities on this rock, changing it's character many times. A few months back, the rock received it's latest paint job, and since then it has been left completely undisturbed. It's quite an impressive sight.

I thought the flag was draped over the rock, but it's not. It's actually painted on the rock too.
