Khe Sanh Veterans Reunion

This past weekend, I attended the 40th anniversary reunion of the Khe Sanh Veterans, held in Reno, Nevada. There, I met men who served in Vietnam with my brother, Tony Pepper, some 40 years ago.

Our soldiers come home from Iraq and are welcomed with celebrations and parades. These men came home and were ignored, spit upon and treated as if they were criminals.

They need to be re-remembered now by all. They fought for our freedom and they deserve it.
Who out there saw "The Bucket List" with Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman? I've just started an article about my own personal "bucket list" and am looking for other folks to share theirs with me.

Get crazy and share your wildest dreams. What do you want to do before you "kick the bucket"?

Mine starts something like this: Go to Paris. Go horseback riding with Robert Redford. Open a huge animal farm where I can take in any animal who needs me.

That's my beginning. How about sharing yours!?
