Permanent Address - Cue Care Packages!

I have just received a permanent address, and thought I'd just throw out there that now that I have an address, you have the privilege of being able to send me a care package. So see the address below, which is also being added as a permanent fixture on the main page.

Ryan Luckie, PCV
BUSODA
PO Box 1796
Masaka, Uganda

So in celebration of now having an address, below is the top 6 things that would be awesome to receive in a care package.

6) Foodstuffs - Candy, Chewy Granola bars, instant oatmeal Packets (apple cinnamon is my favorite but variety is the spice of life), junk food type stuffs. My pants are starting to sag so help me out.

5) Starbucks VIA or other Coffee Products (instant or grinds)

4) Stickers - I'm not really a sticker person, but everybody here has the same stuff and I need to differentiate mine. So Clemson Tiger Paws, South Carolina Flags, Dilbert, Mitt Romney for President, or anything else creative I would like that has an adhesive side would be great.

3) An American Newspaper - Preferably ones on Sundays after the Gamecocks choked and Clemson won. (Though that seems to be in short supply these days)

2) A Flash Drive With Illegally Downloaded TV! - This one is specifically going out to Shannypooh. If you would send me HIMYM, maybe the Office, Fringe, you'd shoot right by the newlyweds and become my favorite member of the family. I'll pay for the Flash drive if you load it up! Might make sense to hide this inside of something else.

1) Random Sauces - In France they have incredible food that they eat small portions of, in America we have darn good food that we eat until we can't, and here they have food with no taste or nutritional value that they eat past the point that they are in pain because they think it is bad to be hungry in the morning when they eat breakfast. The operative part of this was the food with no taste. Sauce packets from random restaurants would be incredible and are free! The more random and more variety the better! Make sure they don't need to be refrigerated and put them in a safe container that won't destroy everything in case of a failure.

That's it for now. Random surprises are always nice too. Pictures of friends, a letter that tells a funny story I've missed out on while here, or anything to remind me of home.

Anyhow, I miss you all, ... all 4 readers :)
