Couple of good songs thanking our vets;

Before You Go

Before You Go:VietNam

 


Boons. Of course it's welcome when famous people use their VIP status (and the money earned with it) to do something good. It's questionable though when they go into a distinct delusion and not get involved with world peace and fight against hunger like the rest but instead search for more inventive charities.

A representative example is Cher: With great dedication the 60-year-old pop-queen nowadays supports "Operation Helmet", a really honorable NGO from Houston Texas. With the tight slogan "Protect our heroes" they seek to ease daily business of the US-troops in Afghanistan and Iraq - with comfortable and cushioned helmets. According to the helmet-lobby a comfortable helmet will be used more often and worn much longer which logically increases safety.

Bob Geldof should better not hear of that.
