Our George Costanza

Ruben is one of two high school friends with whom my father in-law keeps in touch. He can be described as George Costanza with the laugh of Krusty the Clown. Since becoming an honorary member of the family many years ago, he's held various odd jobs as insurance broker, bagel maker, mailman, truck driver and salesman of fake designer bags. His stint as a truck driver afforded him the opportunity to visit the compound at various times, bearing gifts similar to items he happened to be shipping ranging from toilet paper to toilet paper. His visits would culminate in his crashing on the family's living room couch, leaving almost nothing to the imagination for the lucky person who happened to be the early riser the following morning.
