Today, I saw on MLIA that someone got a list for sending care packages to troops in Iraq that included silly string. I'm a stationed in Iraq so I thought I'd explain. When we first got to Iraq in 2003 Spiderman 1 had just come out there and all the kids were excited about it, but they couldnt go out and see it because of the war breaking out. So we had this Army guy who had a great idea. Since he kind of looked like Toby McGuire he hid silly string bottles under his wrists and when Iraqi children came by he flicked his wrist like spiderman and string came out. He managed to convince many Iraqi children that all of the troops can do and now all of us travel around doing the same thing, brightening their lives a little. So guys, please send lots of silly string to Iraq, we need more. Its fun for us, and even funner for the kids. MLIA
