hey,

does anybody on this board have family members with "connections"? Be honest and do not lie...

for my answer...i am not quite sure, AIM me on the instant messenger ,Ltalianxstallion (easier to talk that way)

Hi,
Not to my knowledge. If I was connected I sure wouldn't announce it here since the Feds could be watching.

Paul

I don't know either, but I think Paul has a brilliant point here, that even if there were members here they certainly wouldn't dare to announce it here now, after his message! Now lots of members stop posting all of a sudden they're supersticious now about who is watching these boards and all... haha

I sure as hell hope my family is not connected! but everybody has a past My family could be ya never know.

didnt we do this before....OMERTA

Um no, I'm close to the family, as a real man is, and i happen to know that we ain't got nothin to do with no Mafia.
(I like talking like that I'm not realy Italian at all)
But there was that mob bust in Niagra Fall a long while ago, that's practially next door to me.

I admit it.
All my life I wanted to be a gangster.
I am not hiding from nobody.
I love publicity so much, I must have a deathwish or else I'm a real nutjob.

Dito! After watching movies like Goodfellas & Casino, I thought it would be cool to be in the mob. But that's TV. I'm not in the mob, I'm mostly Irish. But the pizza place I always go to eat, I always think the owner was or still is in the mob. I'm sorry, but he's just got "that look."

I'm really Jon Gotti, I just faked my death. :p

My grandfather was a weird guy. He never told anybody about his past and he had an office in the basement of his house that has an eerie atmosphere about it. They guy was supposed to be a minister and a publisher of children's safety pamplets. Why did he need a huge desk with a leather chair and all kinds of those fancy glass bottles you put wine in for? And he must have had five or six filing cabinets down there. A couple of nice leather chairs facing the desk. Hmm... And when he died we found a big, black Mafia-style coat in his closet. All the drawers of the desk were locked too, and no one could find a key.

Then again, the guy WAS from Norway.

Don Mickey, sounds like your grandfather could have hooked you up nice! VERY interesting. Did you ever get into the desk? I would have busted the locks. Sounds like he had a sweet setup.

My grandmother sold her house and moved to California before we could ever get in that desk. The couple of drawers we could open contained amazingly large collections of pens and rubber bands. Weird... Weirder still, she didn't sell the stuff, had my uncle cart it to the dump. I wonder why? Hmmm.....
