He puts a monster on the bus and records the trip, then writes about it.
There is always some good in the world, its just sometimes it becomes clouded over with all the terror and bad in the world. Stephen King rocks!

King just keeps getting more and more awesome as time goes on.

Lucky guy.
Turns out they got killed in Iraq, and heading home was just their dying dreams.
Stephen King was always a cool guy, this is quite a good deed.
I feel bad for him, it says he was 'approached' about donating the money. What's he gonna do, say "NO!"? Then everyone will be saying "Stephen King hates America and Christmas". Basically he got jacked for $13,000 and I bet those troops can't even read.
If he didnt give the money there would have been no mention of him. Its as simple as that.
