After deciding he would get nothing of interest from the two old men who comprised the entire staff ofThe Weekly Islander<\/span> , the feature writer from the BostonGlobe<\/span> took a look at his watch, remarked that he could just make the one-thirty ferry back to the mainland if he hurried, thanked them for their time, dropped some money on the tablecloth, weighted it down with the salt shaker so the stiffish onshore breeze wouldn\u2019t blow it away, and hurried down the stone steps from The Grey Gull\u2019s patio dining area toward Bay Street and the little town below.

\u201cWhat does it look like?\u201d Vince looked more satisfied than ever. With the money gone he smoothed down the flap over the pocket and took the last bite of his lobster roll. Then he patted his mouth with his paper napkin and deftly caught the departedGlobe<\/span> writer\u2019s plastic lobster bib when another, fresher gust of salt-scented breeze tried to carry it away.
