The first thing you'll need to know is that Abuelito Jorge 

had two brothers and three sisters. His brother Carlos is 

the youngest and Jorge was the second youngest.   Well, 

really, Carlos' real name is Herbert Eldin.   Jorge never 

liked that name so when he was born Jorge changed his 

name to "Carlos." And it stuck.

Jorge always wanted to keep whatever his brothers and 

sisters found.   If they found something, he'd say, "That's 

mine, that's mine" without ever knowing what it was. Once 

they wrapped up some garbage and yelled, "Hey Jorge, look 

what we found!" They knew Jorge would say it was his. 

Jorge loved baseball.   He played a lot when he was a kid 

until he broke his arm. He had to go to sleep with that 

broken arm and wait until morning to go to the doctor.  

But he never stopped loving baseball and he'd watch 

every game.  

Jorge loved going to Puerto Rico where he was born. He 

grew up in Cabo Rojo and would return every chance he 

got. On vacation there, he'd get up at 5am to have 

breakfast with all his family and friends, eating his way 

back home.

Later he'd take his family to the beach.   On the way 

there, he'd beep the car horn and wave at people on the 

road.   He'd call out, "Hello Sinforoso! Hola Rincanculin!"  

When you'd ask him who all these people were with the 

strange names, he'd say, "How should I know? I made 

'em up!"

Jorge loved to play practical jokes on people.  

Sometimes if you fell asleep, he'd sneak up on you and 

tickle your feet or get on all fours and bark like a dog.

He even owned a whoopee cushion that he'd use on 

Abuela or his friends at work.

Why? Just because!
