Tony, Lord knows I don't belong on this thread, but once again will guess. You say he got to know a mobster. I'll take a shot....Frank Sinatra? Ok, ok, maybe I can't get lucky twice. TIS

Originally posted by The Iceman: Turnbull you might be right probably are. But I always thought John Gotti had 5 kids. 2 girls, and 3 boys the youngest of which died. Iceman, I stand (partially) corrected: Gotti had four kids. The one I missed was a daughter, Angela. Question about Bonanno and Apalachin still stands.

Joseph Notaro. Q. Who was the first Don of what is now the Genovese family who wasn't Siclian? (Note to Mike's Bodyguard: Do you think that DiGregorio was the model for the joke about the guy who was drummed out of the Mafia for stupidity--they sent him to blow up a car, he burned his lips on the tailpipe?  )

Vincent (the Chin) Gigante. Q. How did Bugs Moran die? (Note to plawrence on Columbo's "legit" job: The NYTimes interviewed Columbo's nominal boss, Joseph Cantalupo, who owned the realty company that employed him, and asked how a lowly real estate salesman like Columbo could earn enough money to buy a lavish country estate. "Mr. Columbo has the sincerest group of customers," Cantalupo replied. "No one ever tries to cheat him out of a commission."  )
