Bill Cady, The Early Years … by Bill Cady 151<br />

I loved that car!<br />

Yeah, it was a piece of shit, but with a difference. It was my piece of shit!<br />

Suddenly, I had freedom! I never stopped to think about how I‟d pay for the<br />

insurance. The repairs, (lots of those). Gas, (my friends were conveniently “short” a<br />

little too often). But, so what? I had a car! I could date. Screw in the back seat, (got<br />

that part handled within the first two weeks). Go drinking beer on country roads listening<br />

to the radio while we got shitfaced, (first night I had it).<br />

Dreams were coming true for Bill Cady. Yeah, they were. But, wait. What about<br />

that David thing? What did it get to drive when that magic age happened and it had a<br />

driver‟s license? Did that David thing get an old raggedy Ford, like I did?<br />

I think not.<br />

Worse. <strong>My</strong> folks paid 100% of the cost. That little prick didn‟t kick in a damned<br />

dime. His car, however, was “a little bit” nicer than mine. They got him a 1964 Olds<br />

Cutlass 442 convertible! With a four-speed! A damned dream car for that little asshole,<br />

all for free! Silver with a black top, black interior, bucket seats, and all the goodies.<br />

Little prick!<br />

Of course, he wasn‟t so little by that point. Matter of fact, he was bigger than me.<br />

He eventually maxed out at six-four, about two-twenty until he got older. That meant he<br />

could kick my ass now, right?<br />

Again, I think not. He never even had the balls to try. He may have been a bit<br />

bigger, but he still had no idea how to fight. Knew it would be nearly fatal for him if we<br />

ever went nose to nose. In all honesty, I have to admit I picked on the little bastard all his<br />

life.<br />
