"How long have you been here?" I asked Tom of Tom's
Terrific Antiques after I rang ('only when the sign is lit;
ring to enter' read the handwritten sign on the door) and
received entrance to his shop on Leavenworth across
from Bronco's Burgers.
"Too long," he said, laughing. And then: "Fifty years. But this is it."
"You're not buying any more?"
"No. I'm dying."
