His legend is undeniable. A little known true story about Charlie... One night after a days work Charlie is the last to leave the building. He went about the usual routine of locking up the complex. But this evening was different, as Charlie went to turn off the light in the kitchen the subtle beginnings of Camina Burana’s O’fortuna emerge from the darkness. Charlie walks to the main bank of switches and with each switch the song grows louder. A little panicked by the ominous tones, Charlie cautiously heads down the darkened stairway to exit the building. As he approaches the main doors time stands still, the foreboding song comes to fruition as Charlie comes face to face with a 7 foot fully armed Rocky Mountain special ops diamond back rattle snake. The snake not hesitating took the first swing…and missed…which is really quite too bad for the snake, as quick witted Charlie seized the opportunity to take his make shift samurai sword made from a mop handle, strafed to the left while simultaneously delivering a deadly blow to the back of the snake’s head. The song trails off as Charlie looked upon his attacker’s lifeless body. Charlie kicks the corpse to verify that the ordeal was over and then picked up mother nature’s trained assassin, walks across the parking lot and dumps its body out in a field. ”Dust to Dust” Charlie mutters as he goes to his car.
Chaz emerged again last week as he diligently went about solidifying his role as a hard working invaluable resource…Congratulations Charlie! With you around we can all sleep with one eye a little less open.
