Bill Cady, The Early Years … by Bill Cady 282<br />

I was glad I heard it in his office, since shitting your pants anywhere else would<br />

prove very embarrassing. Okay, I didn‟t really, but it was close.<br />

He must‟ve been right, because I got my act together after that and the bleeding<br />

ulcer they once feared would kill me was soon gone. Completely. That was forty-two<br />

years ago, and I haven‟t seen anything yet to indicate it was back, so now I‟m a believer.<br />

know if he did any kind of work, but he was funny as hell and I liked him.<br />

Although I don‟t “do guys”, Fred was also pretty good looking, according to the<br />

women I heard talking about him, and all the foxes he brought by the station for one<br />

reason or another. He must‟ve been prejudiced, too, since he only dated white women.<br />

Jim was a good looking guy himself, and drove a Porsche Carrera 941, a dark<br />
