Right now, is a very hard time in Chuck's life, between losing Cleo, and
having Kidney Stones, and now his personal problem, I think it's clear that
he is doing the human thing and "lashing out" where he normally would have
been more diplomatic. From what I understand, his brand of whacky humour has
long been his trademark. The only problem that arises is when people take
his humour for the real thing. Chuck is a compassionate and feeling man, if
wveryone would remember that, things would go more smoothly. It's a funny
thing Leisel but usually truly compassionate people are also passionate in
all ways. It's a fiery thing!
