"When I was a boy," the Judge said, "we lived within walking distance of the finest cemetery in Illinois. Sometimes I would walk with him. And if the walk took us past this perfectly maintained necropolis, he would say, `What do you think, Teddy? Is there any hope?' He was a wealthy man, but it was the funniest joke he seemed to know."
King, Stephen
