Book arrived today. Already started reading it. Came with a plastic bag 
for "Cell Phones for Soldiers" donations. I'd love to see the look on my 
boss's face if i stuck his phone in there and shipped it off to Iraq. 
The battery life sucks or i Might just do that....anyway I am not trying 
to start a political debate but if you can send something  to the boys 
and girls in the desert that doesn't explode i'm sure they'd appreciate 
it. I know I would. Anyway i ain't givin nothin to no soldier, I'm 
callin it "Cell phones for Jarheads" Semper Fi!!
