Meet Chucky!!
The Life and Times of Charles G. RadNat
Let me introduce you to Charles “Grinder” Radnat.
Charles, or Chucky as we have grown fond of calling him, is a world traveling good wheel ambassador for the RadNat family. He has been around the world, spreading good wheel and happiness to all that he comes in contact with. If you are feeling out of shape and need a quick solution to your problems, Chucky will grind away at you until you are in true form, with a shining attitude about life.
It hasn’t always been easy for Chucky. He started out in a family that was not very mature. They treated him like a plaything and were really quite abrasive about the way they treated him. He was abandoned on several occasions, actually having to live in trash containers for short periods of his life. He persevered. He bore down and began to crush and grind away on all those who opposed his desire to excel in the art of bringing perfection to all that he worked on. He clowned around and found that folks liked it. He kept a happy face. His opponents began to lose all those rough edges and smooth out. His happy smile and pleasant way became polished and he became a very well balanced individual. When he spun his magic on people, they went from being irregular and rough to well formed and shining works of art. That’s when his future new family began to take notice.
He began to show up at social events, sometimes to the consternation of those that had not yet seen his potential. He began to disappear for short periods of time and then show back up, in the company of the socially elite with tales of trips to many exotic places, and he had the photos to prove it! He became a party animal. He was finally accepted and asked to represent the family by doing what he did best. His dream came true when he was adopted by the Radnats
You may think that he went on to have a great life, which he did for the most part, but life still had a cruel blow to deliver. It was in early April of 2003, after a very successful trip to the north and plans were being made to send him out to the west coast to bring good wheel to the people in California, when it happened.

He was kidnapped!
Panic rained in the Radnat family. They received threats, a ransom was demanded, and photos were received that showed he was being tortured! Something had to be done! There was not enough time for the family to comply with the demands. A very large amount in unmarked currency was hard to come by on short notice. A collection went out to all in the industry and still it wasn’t enough. Thankfully, the kidnapper agreed that the amount collected would be sufficient. The money was exchanged and Chucky was returned.
Chucky made a valiant effort to escape while being held but was caught and in the altercation that followed, He had his arm twisted so badly that he had to keep it in a sling for several weeks. He also received a cut over his left eye that required 12 stitches!

Shortly after, the kidnapper was discovered, and he turned out to be a member of the Radnat family! He was removed from the family a short time after detection and sent to the coldest place that they could find. Since he returned the money, which was then donated to the Cancer Society, and it was reported that he had been a model prisoner, he was allowed to return to a warmer clime. It is our opinion that if he reverts to his evil ways, the RadNats will send him to an even hotter clime!
Chucky was Back!! Just in time for the trip to California.
Here is a shot of Chucky in Los Angeles with his physical therapist doing arm stretching exercises. The therapist seems to be enjoying this just a little too much. She must have really felt sorry for him cause she kept saying that she wished their positions were reversed.
Chucky's ability to wheel and deal plus his ability to grind away on a person for hours, just to make them happy, proceeded him to California. The girls loved him for it. They just couldn't get enough of our Chucky! Here is a shot of Chucky with the driver of his limo. The limo arrived an hour early and since Chucky was a believer in punctuality, he stayed in that limo until it was time to make his appearance. It must have been very hot in there because the windows steamed up. Notice the band aid over his stitches. For some reason, this seemed to make Chucky even more dashing.
Here he is! Right on time for his next appointment.
This lady must have had some sort of physical disorder. Her right hand kept opening and closing spasmodically. Poor Chucky must have had some bruises. Well, you can see that the poor thing is very excited about being able to spend some time with Chucky. That’s the driver on the right. We had a little trouble getting the doors to unlock. It must have been terrifying for her because when we finally did, all she wanted was a cigarette!
Chucky had a little spare time in the afternoon and decided to just "hang out" with one of his admirers and see the sights. He later told me that it was a very fast tour since she broke into a run shortly after this photo was taken and they ended up in her condo. I think he must have been kidnapped again because he said something about being tied up again. He didn't seem too upset about all of this... strange.
