The word from the street
TONY
“Did you hear my good news?”
PHILIP
“Not that I remember.”
TONY
“Well I don’t have the cancer in the lung they thought might have it. I was just at St. Joe’s with my doctors and that’s what they told me.”
PHILIP
“What about the other lung?”
TONY
“They don’t know yet but it’s looking good if you ask me.”
PHILIP
“Did you see what the Bruins did to Ottawa last night?”
TONY
“Yeah but it was nothing like what happened to the Seahawks the other day.”
PHILIP
“How do you keep up with this stuff?”
TONY
“Like they say, I’ve got my sources.”
PHILIP
“Sharon [Tony’s sister] put a comment on the blog that she wanted to know what was happening since we hadn’t updated it in a while, which is true. I guess you could call it a slow news day, sort of.”
TONY
“Well, you can tell her that my ticker’s fine and my lungs are OK but my kidneys are putting up a good fuss today. And you can tell her I miss her too.”
PHILIP
“I’ll post it as soon as I get home.”
