I'm painting my toenails red. Does that count? I hadn't heard about the email. But sure I'm willing to wear red next Friday.

Men don't wear red, but I cut myself shaving and have a red little scab. Bloody good symbolic red mark!
Congratulations on your modest pull outs. At least it signals the end of the build-up!
I do support the troops in prayer, especially three relatives of my American wife who are stationed in Iraq.
I was born and raised in Canada, and I applaud our leaders' decision to "pass" on this war. (as we did with Viet Nam).
May God help both sides to find a path to a permanent peace! God loves each "casualty".

It's a great idea, but I wish it was another color. When I was going to school back in the Dark Ages, if a girl wore red on Friday, it meant she was having her period. That was just something the boys made up, since girls don't usually advertise such a thing.

I did not get out today as I had much work at home. However, I remembered your request and if I do have to wonder out, I will honor this.
Next Friday, I know that I will be out and about so, red it is for me!

Wearing an arbitrary color does nothing to effect, either positively or negatively, what the troops in Iraq go through. It is tribalism and cultish behavior to think that it does. Real tangible work is the only way to really bring support for whatever your personal views on troops in Iraq may be.

I honestly don't own any red clothing... sorry.
Having red hair and wearing a red shirt is just about the ugliest thing... so I don't buy red clothes
