(John Street I can't describe, nor St L)

Reading, PA is Uncle Jim, of unknown age. He works at the hardware store and somehow puts in enough worth to stick around and collect a paycheck. Trouble is, he's a functional alcoholic, and while he still seems to get by every day, everyone knows it's just a matter of time before the whole thing doesn't work. He's pleasant enough to be around, but smells a little, and most people are happy he lives just far enough down the road not to be seen.
