When Army Staff Sergeant Amanda Henderson ran into Staff Sergeant Larry Flores in their Texas recruiting station last August, she was shocked by the dark circles under his eyes and his ragged appearance. "Are you O.K.?" she asked the normally squared-away ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Greylyn58/45 Tue, 07 Apr 2009 11:56:37 LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- Brenda Gardenhire shows off her new home with pride. It looks like an oversized shopping cart covered with a khaki canvas. But to her, it's "wonderful" -- a stepping stone to get her off the streets and get her life back in order.

The stitches were removed from his mouth on Thursday and the vet said his mouth looks good. He has returned to his crazy, fun-loving self.

This picture was taken in my parent's backyard. He was so thrilled to have his c... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Greylyn58/43 Sat, 24 May 2008 20:51:03 It has been thirteen days since my beloved Sheridan had his mouth surgery to remove a cancerous tumor. My poor boy had to have the front part of his mouth (lower canines, little front teeth and a piece of his lower jaw) removed because of it. His new look isn’t as bad as I feared. I told a friend... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Greylyn58/42 Mon, 19 May 2008 22:10:03 Sheridan and I saw his new Vet on Thursday April 24 and for the most part it was a good visit. Everyone at this new Vet office just gushed over my boy, telling me what a sweety he is. (Something I already knew-Sheridan loves everybody). I was also told that he looked really good for a 12 year old ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Greylyn58/39 Sun, 27 Apr 2008 13:32:07 The Vet called me this morning and gave me the bad news. It had some long, complicated name and I could feel tears welling up in my eyes as she told me. She said the tumor had been one of three possibilities. Unfortunately, what it turned out to be is the most aggressive of the three. If I ignor... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Greylyn58/38 Mon, 14 Apr 2008 16:16:54 PHILADELPHIA, Pennsylvania (CNN) -- At 5 a.m. on any given day, Anne Mahlum could be found running the dark streets of Philadelphia -- with homeless men cheering her on as she passed their shelter. But one morning last spring, she stopped in her tracks.

King penguins are supposed to be a wildlife success story. The flightless Antarctic bird — the second-biggest penguin after its movie-star emperor cousin — was hunted into near-extinction by sailors in the 19th century, who used their fat as cooking oil. When the slaughter ended... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Greylyn58/35 Sat, 16 Feb 2008 10:53:55 I watched Keith Olbermann's Post Debate wrap up show and got a good feeling for how it went.

Here's my take on last nights festivities...

He has stood by me during good times and some very bad times in my life, always there with his warm brown eyes, a cheerful smile and constantly wagging tail.

Oh, did I mention he's a dog. Some of you might know him or have... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Greylyn58/32 Fri, 21 Dec 2007 12:23:42 I thought I would share a favorite [b]Dilbert[/b] cartoon that is probably more relavent today than when it was first run in the paper. Scott Adams has been nailing Corps for a lot of years and this particular strip is a good one. It's funny, but scary at the same time.

Enjoy.
