In January of this year, we brought home a retired greyhound racer from Florida. She’s the sweetest, laziest, and most loving gal who only ran 12 races before breaking her foot and being retired. She’s 3 years old and still needs help going down the stairs in our house and will hide behind us when a stranger tries to…

Ha! Like this website would dedicate a blog headline to those guys!

A couple additional things. First

I’ve adopted a total of 3 greyhounds in my life (in 2012, 2013, and 2017). All three dogs arrived to us ridden with worms (that can take up to years to fully eradicate), extremely terrible dental condition/disease, several scars from flesh wounds (from racing equipment and other dogs only, allegedly), and psychological…

Nice article about a not so nice sport.

I really worry (and wonder) about these stories where people try contacting the app for issues that are beyond the app’s control. Like, if someone collapses on your door, goddam, call 911! Just because Guac’R sends a guy to your door to make molcajete guacamole, don’t call them if he has a stroke. 

That’s extremely odd given my experience with probably over a hundred different greys. They are competitive when running but I’ve never seen them turn on each other, and certainly not as a regular occurrence as you imply.

I have a retired racing greyhound. He was painfully thin coming off the track and terrified of most people, especially men. He was also missing part of his ear. At Daytona, where he raced, dogs tested positive for cocaine (https://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/os-xpm-2011-01-14-os-dog-track-dogs-test-positive-cocai2011…

I don’t know why, but Brittany Murphy’s sad end haunts me more than just about any other Hollywood tragedy.  I think because, in contrast to so many stories of tragedy, which tend to involve corruption and some kind of descent into drugs and illness, Murphy by comparison seemed naive and earnest in her desire to…

It’s not sarcasm if it is true :-(

I remember the bigger ones that would come attached to a shoestring lariat and we would wear them around our necks. Circa 1982.

Was this article supposed to make me feel sad that dog racing got shut down? I feel bad for the people who will lose their jobs but keeping people employed is not a good reason to continue to allow shitty things. It no different than when we try to pass clean air laws and people scream about how coal miners will lose…

The celebrity beauty secret I’ll never forget comes from Jennifer Lopez circa JLo fame. Before contouring and highlighting became an everyday thing...JLo claimed that she got her patented glow from applying a dot of shimmery white eye shadow to the tip of her nose. Whenever I look “flat,” I dab some shimmer on the tip…

I have a 7-year-old greyhound. I freaking love him. He is just the laziest, sleepiest thing ever.

I’m glad he got out. He was a racer in Florida.

Perhaps they’ll give these children something to do during the years they’ll be waiting for adjudication - maybe something that would make The Base© in Dixie happy, like picking their cotton and vegetables for free. Make the Confederacy great again! (/s)

Really, Britney, the same could be said about any city or town or any group of people. I’m not a fan of LA, but people need to stop pretending that it’s the only place in America with “fake people you can’t trust”.

I’m reminded of a scene from the old series “Ally McBeal”. The owner of a law firm is worried that the woman he’s dating (Portia de Rossi) is only dating him for his money. His partner responds “Isn’t that WHY you made all that money, so women like that would agree to date you?”

“[her] head suddenly whipped back, causing her body to move backwards as well, as she felt a hot sensation rise from her stomach, into her chest and then into her throat that she was unable to control. [...] Her head came forward while vomit filled her mouth, and [she] began vomiting profusely.” The situation…

oh really? yeah no, I don’t think I could date someone that had dated the worlds most boring attractive person

Or patronizingly saying she looks great “at 46", clearly those commenters are all the most gorgeous people alive.
