You're more than welcomed to invade my home. But I must warn you that you'll have to deal with my Pitbull if you try.

I'm assuming this is a dog.

Thats suppose to scare us?? Mignon eats them for breakfast.

I'll deal with the Pitbull, I'd be more scared of doing anything to ruin Mrs. Cardi's home

You know what happens when you assume, right?

You don't want to have to deal with Andre!

Andre??? That little foo foo dog from next door???? My cat shits bigger than him!

Wasn't Andre a seal in a movie?

Nah. He was a giant in a movie with Billy Crystal.

We just can't go to Cardi's house because the cheerleaders have the keys to the hottub that weekend.

What are you worried about? All you have to do is shake your pom poms... you'll fit right in.

Who said that Andre was a dog?

He's an ANIMAL, but not the kind of animal that you and Beth are thinking of.

Besides, I understand that your cat's really nothing but a pussy.

Don Cardi has a really nice rug in his living room, and he has asked me to take someone with me when he isnt home and remove it . He wants to give it away.

Is that the story that you and I are going with Beth, so that you can leave the others back at the hotel?

Now THOSE are fightin' words. Why don't ya show up on Saturday and say them to my face!

I'll be over at 2:30.

Ahh, sorry DT, it's no longer there. Andre used it to wrap some Pezzanovante Lawyer from the south in.

Be careful what you wish for.......

AM.

This way Mrs. Cardi will be asleep!

I'll go with ya... I hear his place is a real palace.

You already know where the freezer with the steaks, the bar and the BBQ is, so.....enjoy!

SIDENOTE : Hey SC, one of the original owners of L&B died this past week! The B in the L&B.

Where'd ya hear that??

It was in the Obituaries in the Staten Island Advance yesterday.

SALVATORE BARBATI, 75
Co-owned famed eatery
Thursday, August 09, 2007

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Salvatore Barbati, 75, of Sunnyside, co-owner of L&B Spumoni Gardens, the well-known pizzeria and Italian restaurant in Brooklyn, died yesterday in Richmond University Medical Center, West Brighton.

"He was the most honest, generous, loving person that we know. He will be missed. There was nothing fake about him," said his stepdaughter, Kelly Ann Taranto-McMahon.

Mr. Barbati, who owned Spumoni with his brother Louis and his late brother Carmine, was the quietest of the three business partners. He simply went about his work and evaded the limelight, aiming to please his customers and nothing more.

"If they asked who the owner was, he would say 'He's not here.' " said his companion, Anne Taranto.

"He just loved what he did, he put his heart and soul into what he did," Ms. Taranto continued.

Mr. Barbati played an integral part in giving Spumoni Gardens its reputation, but always kept a low profile. When the restaurant was featured on the Food Network, he maintained his post behind the counter, making pizzas.

"They once wanted to do an interview with him about how they made the pizzas, but that just wasn't him. He didn't like the spotlight," said Ms. Taranto.

He left the pizzeria for a few years to serve his country in the U.S. Army during the Korean War, stationed in Germany. He was discharged as a corporal.

Mr. Barbati was an avid golfer and bowler. He had rolled a 300 game and made two holes-in-one.

He also loved spending time with his family and grandchildren.

His wife, Rose Barbati, died in 1974, after 20 years of marriage.

In addition to his stepdaughter, brother and companion, Mr. Barbati is survived by his two sons, Ronald and Michael Barbati; his stepson, James Taranto; his sister, Anna DiBenedetto; and six grandchildren.

The funeral will be Saturday from the Casey Funeral Home, Castleton Corners, with a mass at 10 a.m. in Our Lady of Good Counsel R.C. Church, Tompkinsville. Burial will follow in Moravian Cemetery, New Dorp.

Thats too bad. I wonder how the place will change without him.

I would have thought that you put the L in the L&B.

I'm not a lesbian.

I was thinking more that the L stood for Lady.

But if you insist...

I think I just busted a gut..haha.
