Kills himself at age 75.

What the heck would make someone want to kill himself at 75? He can't tough it out another five more years?

Supposedly he was in pretty poor health. Maybe he'd had enough. I've always heard that suicide among the elderly is more common that people think but it is misreported since it happens in nursing homes many times.

When are you going to do it? At 23 when you are living the high life in your rusted out green Gremlin going to the beach?

He went for the Kevorkian Cure.

If I had a green Gremlin that would be enough to do it.

one or more buildings forming a complex of shops representing merchandisers, with interconnecting walkways enabling visitors to easily walk from unit to unit, along with a parking area and a Sbarros.

Mallhead - the dizzy light headed feeling one gets after being in a mall. Soon turns to the need to vomit which is increased by eating at a complex called a "food court."
