A Kingdom of Loathing Clan
Author: Mikel
One of my wonderful clan members, Bitter Hawk, brought this idea to the clan and I would like to share some of her thoughts.
"A little background, to help you understand where the idea came from and why I came up with this project. My son was stationed in Iraq for a year, beginning with the war. It was very hard on me. I did what I could do to help make my son's service easier. My new son-in-law served with my son and has been redeployed to Iraq. Later I met a Marine in the chat who is stationed in Iraq. Very nice young man and I am sure he is the real deal. A couple of days later, I saw him looking for Smiles of Mr. A. and I thought it would be wonderful if we could get everyone in KoL to smile upon our KoL military persons."
These kind words spawned the event: K.I.T.T.E.N.S.,  KoLers in Turbulent Times Extending Needed Support. By popular demand, we have started K.I.T.T.E.N.S. Round 2! Please note, this is not meant to be a statement of support for any war or military police action. This is meant to be a show of support to military personnel who are risking their lives. We want them to know we're thinking of them and appreciate the hard work they do every day.

If you run into a member of RSK, please send them the KoL names of anyone you know who is currently stationed away from home (at sea or on foreign soil - nationality does not matter), or any soldiers you know that have been wounded in battle and sent home.  We'll be compiling a list of names and are putting together care packages which will include various KoL items and buffs (especially smiles of Mr. A!).

This event will be held over the Labor Day Weekend (Sep 3rd, 4th and 5th). On the last day we will be gathering in the foodcourt, handing out packages, and posting a list of the military names we've collected.

The last theme was "Everything a Soldier Needs". This time the theme is Summer in the Sun! These packages will include items such as Perpendicular hulas, sk8teboards, baseballs, shirts, shorts, and various foods and drinks.

If you would like to lend us your support, please contact Bitter Hawk (505296), Mikel (92832) or smkydz (438429) for details. Items can be sent to the event mascot KittensRemember (570522). While item support is appreciated, what we really need are names! The items and buffs won't do any good if we have no one to give them to! We welcome questions, comments and any help you can offer. Feel free to send any of us a Kmail, or you can e-mail [email protected].

Thank you,
RSK
