Solomon Witte

From Plastic Tub

Jewish-American, born in Wadowice, Poland, 1939. He comes in riding on the back of a leather bath-marie. He is a scissor-tailed thrombocyte. He receives an ivory knife-handle inlaid with discharging machine guns.

Witte arrived in America at the tender age of fourteen. His family first attempted to stay in Brooklyn, but emigrated to Miami 3 years later. Witte's Deli became known throughout the city and the family prospered. Unfortunately his father had a weakness for that old "daevil's clawe" known as whist (http://www.pagat.com/whist/whist.html) and he ruined the family.

After much misfortune, Witte fell into the world of the AA.
