Many of you know (or know of) Audrey. She is Casper's "handler" when ma and pa aren't around. So, a few days ago she dropped a bombshell of a surprise on all of us by announcing that she would be shaving her head bald at the upcoming St. Baldrick's Foundation event on May 2 in honor of Casper. St. Baldrick's raises money for cancer research and staffing money, and does cool things with it like fund research for less profitable solutions, or positions for young up-and-coming doctors who might not otherwise get the nod for scarce federal dollars when pitted against Member-of-the-Establishment doctors...our kind of organization. Anyhow, Audrey is raising money to help St. Baldrick's continue its noble mission, in honor of Casper no less, and so we're plugging the event right here, right now:

Go Audrey Go!
