we were quietly passing time at our hideout, cuddled by our girls. Amy da Signa, also known as il Bernarda, had killed two packs of beer and was bonding with the pavement, while the Rusty Al Bocini hovered over him attempting a reanimation "hell, one of these days he's gonna hit it ", he said, cursing furiously. Tony Sciancalepore, also known as Perez, with a glassy eye and his mouth half open, had dropped into an apparent sleep: only a variety of sounds originating from his area indicated that he was still alive.
