7:30 am [iduok2]	Valentines for Veterans If you’re looking for a fun and meaningful mid-winter project to do with your community or civic organization, scouting group, or your kids or grandkids, “Valentines for Veterans” may be just what you’re looking for. Sponsored by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), the week of February 11 is “National Salute to Hospitalized Veterans” week. VA Secretary Jim Nicholson says that since the observance includes Valentine’s Day, the week encourages Americans from all walks of life, particularly children, to send Valentine greetings to veterans at local VA medical centers and to visit the veterans there, according to the VA Web site. “Valentines for Veterans” started in 1989, with help from renowned newspaper columnist Ann Landers and support from various VA secretaries; and 18 years later, the program has become a holiday tradition. In a letter to “Annie’s Mailbox,” the syndicated column written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of Ann Landers’ column, Secretary Nicholson says that that through the support of “Annie” and her readers, the program has “generate[d] more than 10 million cards and letters for hospitalized veterans and tens of thousands of visits from community members. Hundreds of people step forward each year to join the ranks of VA’s volunteers.” Valentine’s Day is an opportunity to say “thank you” to the more than 98,000 men and women veterans who are cared for every day in VA medical centers, outpatient clinics, domiciliaries and nursing homes throughout the country. All you need to get started is a desire to bring a smile to a veterans face. Valentines of all kinds are encouraged—store-bought and homemade cards alike. Your group can purchase boxes of the inexpensive fold-and-seal kids’ valentines or create your own with craft supplies on hand. Inside messages can range from “thanks for your service” to “happy hearts day.” To send completed cards or to volunteer to visit veterans, contact the Voluntary Service Director at your local VA medical facility. To locate a VA medical center near you, visit the facilities locator page on the VA’s Web site. Read the full text of Secretary Nicholson’s letter to “Dear Annie” and her response.

10:04 pm [iduok2]	The military is the easiest job one can ever have No, I am not a recruiter, and no, I don't think the war in Iraq is right. But.... The military is the easiest job one can ever have for the amount of pay received and compared to the civilian sector. Pay checks are guaranteed. Advancement is faster than any civilian job. You can retire after 20 years, full benefits, free medical/dental, and free college. Military Training can be transferred to certified/licensed jobs: example: Truck Driver, Nurse, EMT, Heavy Equipment Operator, Firefighter, Mechanic, etc. With a college degree, you can be direct commissioned as an officer. As an active duty Staff Sergeant as of 1999, I made $3500 a month take home. This could be you. I am now a disabled veteran and receive 4 pensions, military, va, ss, and civil service. I was civil service before I was active duty and every day active duty day counted towards my civil service retirement. Because I am a disabled veteran, my children receive free college tuition at a college of their choice. This could be your kids. Experience is the best teacher. There is a job for everyone, and everyone needs a job, never look down on those who who have piddly jobs, at least they are working; everyone can't have the same job. Consider everyone intelligent. There is no such thing as stupid, just untaught in some areas. Respect the fellow human being for who they are. Experience is the best teacher. Everyone is unique, never criticize the way they do things as long as it gets the same outcome in the end. Live each day as if it were your last for you only live once, do everything your heart desires before it is too late. You get out of life what you put into it. If you put nothing, you get nothing.
