Paperback edition. This book contains 250 anecdotes about families, including this one: Opera singer Leo Slezak was forced to diet for most of each year because, being a huge man (he was 6-foot-7), he had a large appetite and gained weight easily. (One of the few days of the year that he didn't diet was his birthday.) When he was dieting, his wife carefully measured out portions of food on a scale and those portions were all he had to eat. Of course, Mr. Slezak ate the food quickly and then muttered that the food scale had to be wrong. Once, for a few meals in a row, Mr. Slezak didn't complain about the portions of food he was doled out. His wife praised his will power and suspected nothing until she walked into her husband's den and discovered that the family dog was very interested in the middle drawer of her husband's desk. Opening the drawer, she found a large salami.
