Bonzo
Feminist and social reformer. Inventor of the WonderBra and the piano tie. First Germna cosmonaut to orbit earth, first American to land on the moon, and first to visit the South Pole. Ross Perot’s best friend, legal council, and Vice Presidential running mate. Known for her riveting role as Rose DeWitt in the hit film, Titanic. Premier clothing designer and chief architect of the Sydney Opera House. Also, beloved children’s author.
Bonzo Murphy, née Rodriguez, is all of these things, and none of them. Mostly because they were all done by other people, also, she’s a dog. An awesome dog we love here at IZEA.
Cha Chi
Ladies man, lover of kibble- and the world’s foremost heist mastermind? Consider the following: the Mona Lisa heist of 1911, the Brinks pinch of 1950, England’s Great Train Robbery of 1963, the Lufthansa swindle of 1978, Dunbar’s Armored nab of 1997, and the Boston Museum pilfer of 1990. What do these have in common? A small Chihuahua was spotted at each raid. Coincidence? Notice how the crime spree ends in the 90’s, right around the time a certain fast food joint found a new star for their taco commercials. And, let’s not forget about the recent Beverly Hills Chihuaha movie…could Chachi have traded in his marauder’s mask for acting fame and fortune!?
The verdict is still out on some of these world-class capers. Do you think he dunnit? Of course Chachi couldn’t have done it, he has no opposable thumbs and he likes to sleep in, looting would mean getting up early.
Lilly
Lily first appeared here last year, 2009. Immediately, she had a real sense of belonging and it was like she was always trying to tell us something. That’s when we knew what she was. She’s a time traveler. We’re not sure where in the future she’s from, but it’s clear that she feels we’re a primitive bunch. Lily is always happy, too. In fact, she’s just too happy. That’s our second clue. Nobody from this time would be happy with the onset of global warming, the fast food double down, or Sylvester Stallone’s return to the big screen. Lily, however, is probably glad to be out of whatever the future holds- giant carrots controlling the world or what have you. Don’t worry, Lily. We’ll protect you.
