Home for the Holidays from Stephen King

It is a good thing to wake up on this Gaudete Sunday and see this:

King and his wife, Tabitha, who live in Bangor, are paying $13,000 toward the cost of two bus trips so that members of the 3rd Battalion, 172nd Infantry Unit can travel from Camp Atterbury in Indiana to Maine for Christmas. The soldiers left Maine last week for training at Camp Atterbury. They are scheduled to depart for Afghanistan in January.
Thank you, Mr. King, and Merry Christmas to you and your wife. By the way, thanks to you, I now make sure that I cremate my dead pets, so the suckers stay dead.

Digi - what a coincidence. Camp Attebury is where Buzz's son is stationed too.
