“It was amazing,” Dee Dee whispered to Cutter as she joined him at the bar. “I mean the guy was like dead. No heartbeat, not breathing, nothing and Hussey just poured this powder in mouth and hey presto! His eyelids fluttered open and he sat up and stared straight ahead.”

“Where is he now?” Cutter asked.

“I left him in his room to rest, the Daytona race is tomorrow.”

“I’m as dry as a persimmon stuffed with alum and rolled in a blue law,” Tony said as he waddled into the bar and lifted his girth on to a barstool beside Cutter.

“Are you taking any action on NASCAR races?” Cutter said to Tony.

“I am,” Tony said, smiling.

“What are the odds on number 13, Rebel Buford, at Daytona?”

Tony retrieved a cell phone from his pocket, punched a single digit for speed dial and spoke into the phone. He snapped the phone closed and slipped it back into his coat pocket. “He’ll pay ten to one,” Tony told Cutter. “But why don’t you save your money? The man has never won a race.”

“Put me down for a thousand dollars,” Cutter looked cock-a-hoop.

“Did you see what he did at the last race?” Tony said.

“I saw the race,” Dee Dee chimed in. “Give me a thousand dollars on Rebel Buford to win Daytona too.”

“It’s your funeral,” Tony said.

Dee Dee smiled. “A little premature for a funeral, maybe a wake,” she whispered to Cutter. Cutter was smiling ear to ear.

“Hey,” Tony grinned at Cutter with such a cat-like grin you could almost see feathers peeking out from the corners of his mouth, “maybe you got more inside information like you had with the dog?”

“Yep, same sort of deal.” Cutter grinned. “You still going to take my bet?”

“Sure,” Tony said, “I just might take a little action on it myself.”
