It was, like, my old buddy from that school up squaresville way, Pete Hanson. He had been fishing, style. 'I asked him the bit, how things were. He Didn't know. He was way out. He said the fish weren't biting, and tomorrow was the eighty-fifth Day. I said, get off the square kick, I mean the bit with the old buddies. Oh, he said, and He looked hurt. But he told me all he knew. He never did know too much.
