HOMECOMING: Charlie, Norman McDonald together again Was there a connection between a possible dog snatching and an armed intrusion four days later? Possibly. Charlie, aka "Brillo," and heartbroken master realized happy ending when the little dog reached home and made a wild leap into the air, landing squarely in the lap of his waiting friend, Norman McDonald. The matter of the shotgun attack is in the hands of the law. Seven photos accompany this story By Geniece Marcum Charlie Is home and a whole community rejoices as news of his near miraculous return spread quickly among residents of the Atchley Road and Gentry Mill Road vicinities of Adair County this week. Charlie had been missing for more than a week after his owner Norman McDonald opened the door to let him outside at about 3am. When Charlie didnt return, a check around the neighborhood revealed that no one had seen the little dog that day, and everyone began to worry. This wasnt like the Charlie they knew and a search for him began. Norman McDonald has been in a wheelchair for the past 14 years, since an accident at work left him paralyzed from his waist down. He has learned to take care of himself for the most part, but he has friends and close neighbors who come in and help whenever he needs them to -- and until last week, he had Charlie.

Tom Chaney: August 19, 2007: Robert Penn Warren Of Writers and Their Books: a review of The Gods of Mount Olympus, by Robert Penn Warren Robert Stone By Tom Chaney JUST LIKE A GOOSE A local attorney once told me about a client of his who was a repeat, serial offender. He didn't just break the law repeatedly. He kept breaking the same law over and over. Not content to earn just one charge for DUI, he would get three or four DUI's before moving on to a string of charges for fighting; then public intoxication and so on. My attorney friend said that the miscreant's brother came to his office. "I asked him, what's the matter with your brother? Can't he learn?" "Oh! You know him. He's just like a goose -- wakes up every morning to a new world!"
