The Charlie Bravo Story

Home again

Dad has been in Memphis for the last few days, undergoing some job training, doing some customer entertaining, etc... posh hotel a few blocks off of Beale St, fine food, fantastic company, you know, the "perks" of corporate life. His last event was supposed to be a dinner last night, then back to the room afterwards to return to the Casa this morning. When offered the option of leaving for home after the entertainment and…

A new direction

Warning: excessive motorcycle jargon ahead, proceed at your own risk. Since Charlie and I returned from Colorado last month, it has been obvious that a change in bikes was needed. Our Suzuki DR650 enduro did fantastic, but is light, fairly tall, and has no forward protection from the elements. Charlie weighs 55#, and when you figure in all of our camping gear, that's like having another person on the back of the bike for 2000…

Trust and verify

Dad here; the recent situation with the beautiful girl in Bastrop has brought back a flood of memories from the early days of Charlie. BTW, the gofundme goal was reached, and if I understand it correctly, her amputation is to be performed this morning. It did my heart good to look down through the list of the donators and see so many names I recognize from this page; I had no doubt the siblings would…

A letter from the south

Dear Senorita Charlie; This letter is long overdue, but better late than never, eh? I am writing to thank you and the inmates of the Casa del Whackos for the kindness and guidance you showed my wandering son; he went by many names during his troubled years, El Zurdo, Bull Taco, El Guapo, but he will always be little Lupe' to me. He was a charming rogue created in the likeness of his papa, and…

Twirling dervish

Ajax here; since establishing residence at the Casa del Whackos, I have learned many things, the most important being the Wi-Fi password. So while mom and dad are at work, I'm busy on the Web assimilating tons of useless trivia; mom can't figure out how I can remember the deepest spot on earth(the Mariannas Trench) and who invented gunpowder(the Chinese), but can't seem to remember that the fireplace hearth is not my personal toilet. Another…

Insert your picture here

You will notice that there is no picture attached to this post; this is because that I plan to attempt to paint one with words later on, and would hate to spoil the experience for you. The Casa came into being, first by accident as critters in need just kept showing up over the years, then by design as a place to escape the constant barrage of negative energy on the Web. We consider it…

It always seems like its too soon until its too late

Dad here; Angel, the grand old lady of the inmates at the Casa del Whackos, passed over the bridge tonight. I find it hard to describe myself as a "pet owner"; how do you "own" a living creature that controls such a large portion of your heart, albeit for a comparatively short span? I do like the title of "dad", as a parent, not an owner, is what you become when you adopt. Whatever the…
