Good advice Send P.J. Tobia to Afghanistan in Style: Where Do You Get Decent Veal in This Town?
Posted by Jim Ridley on Wed, Nov 12, 2008 at 3:14 PM
Scene investigative reporter P.J. Tobia, an adventurer in all things, has decided to vacation this Thanksgiving in sunny Afghanistan as a guest of the 101st Airborne. (That's right: P.J. is using his vacation time to chill in formerly Taliban-occupied comfort.) Before he leaves the U.S. to chow down on MRE turkey and dressing, however, he would love a send-off meal—nothing fancy, just some veal and a nice chianti.
Please, Bites brigade, help this lonely overseas traveler. Who in Nashville has the best veal, scallopini or otherwise?

I read an article entitled, "A War's Impossible Mission. Captain Roger Hill is a former student of mine. He was in my 7th and 8th grade science class. Our families continued to stay in touch throughout his college years and military service. He is one of the finest young men I have ever taught. Thank you for bringing attention to the dilemna faced by our service men.

Mr. Tobia, I would also like to thank you for bringing Roger's story to light. Citizens held a patriotic prayer meeting for him last Friday night at Bridgeport Middle School in Bridgeport, Al where he is a graduate. His father as well as many other community leaders spoke about the injustices that Roger has faced.
