With Melissa’s MOS she could have a future in civil aviation when she gets out of the service, but I’d like to see her get into NASCAR. Maybe she could team up with Danica Patrick.

Geez, at least we got Lita Ford and Bon Jovi. (The combination of which might also make heads explode, but which actually worked.)
And it gives the guys something else to do besides try to burn their female coworkers’ uniforms off with their X ray vision. ;-7

The USO celebs are volunteers. It isn’t popular to entertain the troops now. If the public was into really sacrificing for the war effort, you would see bigger stars doing their bit. As it is, several country-western singers have volunteered their time and talent. This is and isn’t the norm USO tour.

The celebs should be ashamed of themselves! A lot of “press’ about work for Haiti, but for our own troops, who are missing home and struggling to make it through their deployments, nada. Disgusting!

We actually may have passed. I was at the beach on FT. Derussy/Waikiki that Christmas. That was MY beach.
