Bringing Out the Dead

         I've worked on the floors of some of the finest East Side restaurants,serenaded by violins while the man at the table next to me cut into his prime rib,and i have worked under the gory fluoresence of basement diners where taxi drivers can order,eat and be back on the road in ten minutes.I've watched Broadway shows from the front row, kung fu pornography from Times Square balconies.I once brought a bartender back to life on top of his bar while irish dance music played.
