The Legend of Bill

I met Bill P outside of  a certain grand hotel on Broadway. He has lived there for the last forty years -- the old owners insisting that he always be allowed to stay before they sold the hotel.  Bill is the only man ever to knock down Jake Lamotta (Lamotta took a dive early on...always regretted it but that's another story).  Anyway, here's Bill's account.  More adventures of Bill P to follow.
