PERSONAL

 

Mr. Klock is 80 years of age and somewhat over his fighting weight. He has been married for as long as he can remember (58 years, anthensum, but who's counting?),during which period he has accumulated one son and a daughter who are practicing attorneys, six other daughters who are going straight, twenty grandchildren, five great-grandchildren and luxurious homes in Florida and New Hampshire, complete with breath-taking views, exotic landscaping and thriving colonies of creeping critters.

 

He is afflicted with distinguished creditors, disreputable friends, highly influential enemies, a variety of post-menopausal ailments, athlete's foot and a hernia. (From some of these maladies, he has recovered.) He is long-winded on the platform, short-winded on the stairs, has absolutely no wholesome hobbies and is instinctively disliked by small dogs. Also, he drinks, swears, bites his fingernails and entertains impure thoughts...often simultaneously.
