Eddie Two-Shirts

Went on a trip with the big boss, a week and a half. He only brought two shirts, worn them the whole trip. Came back Eddie Two-Shirts! Boss likes him good but with a name like Eddie Two-Shirts he's lucky to get eight blocks in the 40's. Lower East Side is out of both his immediate and long term future.

Eddie wants a new nick name...

I lived on west 46 between 9 and 10 Ave for several years . (Then moved 22 blocks south to Chelsea ).
But I don’t get the Hell’s Kitchen reference ?

@AthrillatheHunt I don't either actually. Is that the area I described?

Yea it’s NYC.

@AthrillatheHunt there is an area in Philly called the Devil's Pocket. So called because the children were so bad, they would pick the devil's pocket! I was just trying to flesh out a character. Eddie works the 40'2 but he lives in a Staten Island walk up over a drugstore.

@GerOttman staten island is the forgotten borough . More better go w queens or Brooklyn .
More people can relate .

@AthrillatheHunt Good idea, I just thought Eddie would live in a mundane out of the way sort of place. Long train ride in to the action, catch up on the racing form, get an early bet in with Micky at the transfer.

@AthrillatheHunt My dad's step father had an apartment in Sheepshead Bay. Used to go there as a kid.

@GerOttman staten island is serviced by a ferry boat. Make him live on the last stop of the subway in queens or Brooklyn , like Coney Island or far Rockaway .
Best of luck w your character development dude .

@GerOttman that’s about as Brooklyn as it gets . I have a good buddy from graves end .

@AthrillatheHunt He captained a day boat from the marina for years. Found out after he passed, he was on a destroyer in the Pacific and got torpedoed!
