Tiny Tim Would YOU want Tiny Tim at your child's party?

Tiny Tim had so-ooo much to do! He took an extra long shower(normally the first of his five daily cleansings lasts a mere 90 minutes), applied cosmetics with the upmost care to ensure a smooth, dewy complexion, and ran his long, bony fingers through his shoulder-length ringlets. Then he donned his uniform: madras jacket, bright plaid shirt and pink and green tie. His buck teeth smiled back at him in the mirror in modest self-approval. (Tee hee hee!) He collected his shopping bag containing all his sacred possessions (the beloved left-handed ukelele included), and was on his way.

Tiny Tim    Cassy Gannon (in the party hat), daughter of Barb and Joe Gannon, Tiny's concert manager, was celebrating her 10th birthday, and Tim was there to entertain the 25 children and assorted parents. He chatted with the kids, and signed autographs for all.
   Between birthday bash engagements, Tiny manages to tiptoe through the country drawing record breaking crowds at his falsetto concerts. In Santa Monica he attracted a star studded audience. Currently, he is successfully handling the Las Vegas "situation," as he calls it. Lately he's grossing-well, it ain't animal crackers!
   The Gannons have three other tots-Cheche, 8, Pat, 5, Jonna, 3-and that means three more birthday parties this year. Chances are Tiny Tim would be thrilled to attend them all, but can one home possibly survive four such potent doses of happiness and sunshine?
