Paul , you're critique is cruel. The little guy was under a lot of "pressure", there at the end.

Hey Gene, you and I seem to like to hear the rest of the story. Tiny Tim was actually a fairly good singer, He got the Idea from an old Mae West movie where she sang TTTT, with the same "little voice". I think he may have gone off his rocker after that, but it was a clever career move, that worked.

Gene,

According to some quick internet research, Tiny Tim's bride was "Miss Vicki" AKA Victoria Budinger who was only 17 years old at the time of the wedding which was held on December 17, 1969 on The Tonight Show hosted by Johnny Carson (Tiny Tim, AKA Herbert Khaury, was born between 1926 and 1933, so he was at least 36 at the time). The couple had a daughter named Tulip, and they divorced after eight years of marriage.

Tiny Tim passed away in 1996 after suffering a series of heart attacks.

Thanks Tom. Miss Vickie...yes, that was her. I remember seeing that tv show, it was really hyped at the time and of course Carson's facial expressions were some of his very best.

Jamie Farr's character (who wore the female clothing on Mash) always reminded me of Tiny Tim.
