Ken

  • This man's name is Ken
  • He sat at a table outside a convenience store
  • The Complete and Total Loser talked to him while waiting for a friend
  • Ken said his wife died
  • Ken said he owned three ranches in Texas and that they were going to move to one but now he won't
  • His arthritis hurts him
  • The last two Pennsylvania winters were hard
  • He'd been a broker at a large financial services company
  • The Loser's friend arrived
  • He and Ken knew each other and caught up a little
  • Later, the Loser's friend said Ken had driven the van that took people, including him, to and from the company and the train station
  • He doubted that Ken had worked there as a broker
