Chuck & Charlie - Part 1

"Wow! Charlie can sure throw that ball. Look, she aced second base on her first try."

"Hey, Chuck! Ask Charlie if she'll be on our team this weekend. We need someone with a good arm. Those guys from Harvey Street are coming over and we're having a challenge softball game."

Chuck rode his bike as fast as he could, he didn't want his Mom to be mad at him, if he was late. He'd been trying to be real good because he's been asking and asking his Mom for a pet for about two weeks. She kept telling him, "we'll see, we'll see." In Chuck's mind, that meant 'maybe' and he wasn't going to do anything to make her mad right now - just in case the maybe turned into an 'alright'.

Just as Chuck rode around the corner, he spotted Officer Ward getting out of his police car.

"Hello, Chuck. Have you been to the park today?"

"Yes sir. I'm just hurrying home from there. I have to go to the dentist this afternoon."

"It's very good to look after your teeth. You run along, Chuck. Good luck at the dentist."

Two criminals were ransacking an older man's home office, looking for something. The old man came upon them in his office, and even though he was in a wheelchair, he started yelling at them and rushing at them with a log he grabbed from beside the fireplace - raised and ready to hit them with it.

"Quick, grab the old guy!"

"Stop him, you idiot - don't let him get to the telephone."

"Watch it! Now see what you've done. You've knocked the old man out of his wheelchair, and he hit his head on the edge of the fireplace. Wow! Look at all that blood!"
