A couple of years ago, some burglars thought the container labeled "Charlie" was cocaine, and
started snorting it.

The homeowners were sort of taken aback at the ashes spread over the table or counter, mentioning to police that
the burglars must have been pretty thorough to sift through the dog's ashes. The cops looked at the pattern in the
ashes, looked at the urn, and looked at the name on the urn, and explained that "Charlie" was slang for cocaine.

Haverhill, MA, ~2002, iirc.
