"Fucking christ Razor. Are you trying to get me killed? Every gangster in Cilfone's organization is looking for her. The word is that anyone caught assisting her gets a pair of cement shoes for Christmas."
I adjusted my trenchcoat and shrugged my shoulders. "Don't worry Stanton, we were never here."
"You're damn right you weren't. Now get out."
Loren interjected tearfully, "Please! They'll kill me! You can't possibly be the man who wrote such singles as 'I Know a Jewish Carpenter Who Can Help' and 'When in Doubt, Call Stanton Out!'"
Stanton turned around, but not before his face told me Loren had scored a point. The dame had her uses.
"Listen Stanton, give me the information that I need and you can forget we ever showed up."
"You're leaving by the back door."
"That's fine. Just tell me what you know about MickGinny."
"Not much really. I'm not one of his customers. Ever since BerZerK introduced me to the wonders of homosexuality, there hasn't been much he has had to offer me. I used to like women just fine, but he laid me down and..."
ATTN GHEY MENZ! Even in the detective business, there's such a thing as too much information. Suddenly, his mention of leaving by the back door took on a whole new meaning.
I looked him square in the eye, or at least I was going to until I remembered his back was turned to me.
Pressing resolutely on, I said, "Well, you can tell me who WOULD know. Who are his friends?"
Stanton turned around. "The guy you want is Rick Manfre. He was with Ginny just about every chance he got. You'd think they were best friends, but I think that Rick was more like a smack addict who befriended the dealer for cheap prices. The guy has an insatiable appetite."
Loren turned on me, exasperated. "You know, I could have told you that. I'm his wife after all. What kind of a detective are you, anyway?"
Some dame wasn't about to call my skills into question. "You want to know what kind of a detective I am? Well, let me tell you. You're having an affair with the renowned bodybuilder Eddie Barocci. You went to see him before you walked into my office, he was too scared to help you, so he sent you to me and told you never to come back. After he had laid the pipe. While I'm at it, you pluck your eyebrows too much."
They both looked at me in complete shock.
"Who... how..." Loren stuttered.
"Should I start with the bottle of ephedra I saw in your purse? Or perhaps I should tell you about how your lipstick and hair were both mussed. Call it a hunch, but I'm guessing you weren't sucking on your dead husband's finger. Also, you came into my office and knew I was Razor. The sign on the door lists both my name and hidden's, yet you knew who I was. You must have had a description of me and I know I didn't give it to you. Should I add in the fact that Eddie's been through my door more times than Mike Tyson has been handed indictments? The last time I saw him, he smelled like Chanel No.5, which is the perfume you're wearing right at this very moment. As for your eyebrows, well..."
She slapped me. I suppose I deserved it but you might as well have told Brian Urlacher he doesn't know how to tackle people. Besides, once she got over the shock she would begin to realize how smart and manly I was. She'd be mine before the night was over.
"Also, I'm betting your husband was the type of man who tried to keep his lowlife friends away from his wife. Do you know where you can find Rick Manfre, Loren?"
She shook her head silently.
"I'm betting Stanton does."
Stanton nodded. "You can usually find him at Loki's Pleasure Palace."
"Thanks Stanton. Point us towards the back door and we'll be on our way."
"Wait," said Loren, "aren't you going to ask where it is?"
"Don't worry, I know."
Dames.
We made a quick exit out of the back door, and started walking back to the L train. We were only a hundred feet from the station when I looked back behind me and froze.
"What is it Razor? What's wrong?"
"Keep walking. We're being followed."

Loren, you have beautiful eyes and you know it. I was just picking on you because I could. I also knew better than to go too far, which is why I got slapped before I could. If that makes sense.

And another. This series will go in that mythic Uber Hall of Fame. I think Bart should put a new section on the sidebar called 'UberPulp' and have you keep posting installments. Holy shit this is turning out great. You deserve a special column on Ubersite. I can't find the words to describe the way this stuff rules.

"I looked him square in the eye, or at least I was going to until I remembered his back was turned to me."
That's the best line in the whole thing. I also liked the song titles. They sound pretty catchy. hahaha
