Eldery enlist as coupon clippers to aid military

i liked this article for several reasons. in part because andrew is quite the avid coupon clipper; he's even so careful to cut perfectly on the lines. in part because i think so many more people would support the troops but don't really know what to do, don't have any concrete suggestions on how to actually support the troops. and mainly i liked it just because it was so very positive. we could also use a bigger helping of positive news, more stories about people who help others and fewer stories about prostitution rings and clinics using dirty syringes.
