thank you screamy....

No way, hon...I vote every time I'm offered the opportunity to do so and pay my taxes on time, but as much as I love this country I am way too much of a creature-comforts girl to dedicate my life to serving it - so thank YOU!!

[sharkie]

I think you underestimate yourself....I believe that everyone serves our country but in different ways than some others....Everytime you are kind to someone or do a good act you truly are representing our country.....you are showing the world how wonderful our people here are....I also envy so many of you that have kids....to me you are all heroes...I knew going into the military that there would be no children for me....I was in full time and travelled so much that I would not have been able to do it, nor would I have wanted to be away from my child.... When ever I visit family or friends and watch them with their kids, I think wow now they are contributing to the future of our country by positively raising their children....Whenever I go visit my fellow SCr Anna Michelle and see her with her 3 kids I so think she deserves a medal.....so even those that never join the services, they do make a difference....

you're awesome sharkie! look at all those photos and all those signs! i think you'd be surprised to find out just HOW many people think about you! i haven't run into you much on SC until recently, but even then I'm glad I have, because I can see what an awesome person you are (and that was before finding out you've had such an amazing career-- THANK YOU for that!!) and even last week i was out and about, i found myself thinking about "sharkie's signature", which i loved when I read! cheers to you!!!!!!

[sharkie]

thank you r0c0pons ......god bless

A truly remarkable story and a truly remarkable life. ( With sooooooooo much more to come) May you have a long and Healthy Retirement. Thankyou so much for sharing and Thankyou for what you have done. Sometimes I think we underestimate the true acts of kindness that we perform. You steping through the security lines and shaking hands with the children is making me cry as I type. You are a leader. That little girl that wants to follow in your footsteps. You have given her hope for the future. In our lives we meet one or more people that can change our future. It could be that teacher that bought the runners for the girl from the poor family so she could run in track, or perhaps the Dr. that collected food and brought it up to the home of the starving children. They have left there mark in the minds of many. True Heroes- Just like you
