Bill Cady, The Early Years … by Bill Cady 228<br />

Ken wouldn‟t leave me alone. He kept on and on about my reputation as a boxer,<br />

then asked me if I‟d teach him to box right there, right now.<br />

“Are you out of your fucking mind? Why the hell would I do that, way out here<br />

at a party, in the freakin‟ dark, when we‟re drinking? Go sober up and see me some other<br />

impossibility, that was another reason I didn‟t want to slap box a drunk out in the open air<br />

at a party. When I beat his ass, a foregone conclusion, what‟s to keep him from getting<br />

pissed off and taking a swing at me?<br />

his fist.<br />

Nothing, that‟s what. So, he did. The son-of-a-bitch hit me right on the chin with<br />
