The question is becoming frequent: “How do you feel, Billy?”
The answer is always the same: “No good. My leg, she hurts all the time.”
That leg, injured long ago when he is a newsboy and is hit by a newspaper delivery truck, is never right. There are 16 operations on it over the years, none very successful. That’s why he uses a cane for decades. But he rarely complains, dismissing that ailment and the others that come at him with age. Most days he summons a favored few pals to his table in the V.I.P. (Very Insecure People) Room. And, as old men do, he tells stories of the past, of his boyhood in Greece, and the wild times on Madison Street.
