There are guys on RD who are pen pals with some of these guys. But if you ask me they're all fucking crazy. It's one step away from these White Trash women who fall in love with serial killers while corresponding with them in prison. But it proves my point about wiseguys attracting stalkers. Happens all the time  .

Someone on the RD actually did this to Scarfo and Scarfo wrote back. Here's Scarfo's reply:
"I received your X-Mas card. Thank you. I don't write to people I don't know but your kind words and thoughts made me decide to to answer you and thank you. Plus you didn't talk about religion and God and all that kind of stuff. Usually that's what people do. They mean well but I'm not into that kind of stuff. I leave religion to the women and children. I'll always be strong and fight for my freedom." Hey Ivan. How's Chicago? Hipsters show up yet? I actually fled Chicago after a couple months to get away from the hellish winter we were having. I'm in Las Vegas at the moment. I'm not sure if I'm going back or not. There are hipsters everywhere there.

What is RD? I am a newb, in case it seems obvious. It's another website, and I shouldn't have mentioned it here. And welcome to the board.

Not many hipsters in Las Vegas. There's a handful by UNLV and downtown. Not sure if I am going to stay here permanently. I'm still thinking it over. There's a good chance I will as that -40 degree wind chill bullshit really pissed me off and I don't ever want to have to fuck around with that again. One option I was considering was maintaining a winter home here, but living elsewhere the rest of the year. My god the winter here was nice!

When we bought the place in Florida I was still in my thirties. And what happens is, every year you use it more and more.

Out of all the places in the country, Ivan, I got to say you picked the two cities that I wouldn't live in under almost any circumstance. Just drove through gary and chicago and got reminded how disgusting they are. I guess at least vegas is sunny
Should probably ask Mr. Kierney. I guess if you're Italian, you should be in prison. I've read the RICO Act, and I can tell you it's more appropriate... for some of those guys over in Washington than it is for me or any of my fellas here

You're lucky, Reno (midtown area) is thick with them who've been priced out of Portland or Oakland and looking for something "not so big city". We seem to have a lot of home-grown ones too. You might decide differently about the weather when the 110 degree Vegas blast furance starts up in July.

Just kidding, the winters are always bad but this one was by far the worst one in decades. Probably a bad first impression for someone just moving here.

I've been to Nevada at least half-a-dozen times in July and August because I have an uncle retired in Palm Springs. When it's 120 degrees, who gives a fuck if it's a so-called "dry heat"? Yeah that "dry heat" thing is fucking retarded. I'm spending the summer with my brother back home starting in two weeks (I get around a lot these days). After that, I'm not sure.

Wasn't it the worst winter ever recorded or something?

Wasn't it the worst winter ever recorded or something? Yeah I'm pretty sure it was the 3rd snowiest on record (the 1st was only like 3 inches more). But by temperature, it was the coldest one on record.

Unbelievable, Gets. I was actually on eBay looking for a dvd when you posted this. And the Lansky thing is insane  . yeah, right? Fleming's advice was good, though it never dawned on me that a mob guy could or would do that..... The advice to NOT write mob dude is sound advice. Reading it prompted me to erase my earlier post about the topic of her friend/her cashing in on any correspondence from the mob guy. The thing is, if someone is going to be a stalker/groupie for ANY infamous criminal....they should think of how to use to it to their advantage. I guess plenty of people who got letters from incarcerated Gotti are KICKING themselves for NOT saving and auctioning them off.

I would imagine in the same way guys feel that reading Gangland every week adds to the quality of their life, or stalking mobsters' families facebook pages adds to the quality of their life, or taking retarded pics of mobsters' homes adds to the quality of their life, or speculating what Joey Oompa Loompa Merlino is driving these days adds to the quality of their life, etc etc etc. [/quote]
Yes... we are on these boards to discuss gangsters and peek into their world. But I do draw a line between chit-chatting anonymously with gangster-voyeurs and giving a felon your personal address and acting as a comforting ear for them. I just can't see why anyone would want them in their life. Even Bonosera wasn't too happy with the deal he struck with the devil.
