Ben Stein Rules

Share

OK, my turn.  As I was reading RedLegMeg's Letter to a Military Spouse, I was reminded of another uplifting letter that's a couple years old.  This one was written by Ben Stein.  Remember him, the monotone teacher on Ferris Bueller's Day Off?  He's currently one of the most active supporters of military families, and he's not all full of himself like many celebrities are.  He actually emailed me once when I wrote about him on my blog, and I know he's contacted several other spouses in the past too.  He's a heck of a guy.


Here's his letter, called Strength At Home.


P.S.  If you've never read the often-forwarded How Can Someone Who Lives in Insane Luxury Be a Star in Today's World, you should.  And more Ben Stein articles can be found at his website.
