Geoff, I think it was John D'Amico (not sure about the first name though). TIS

It is Frank D'Amico. I found this website on him. He actually looks thinner in some of the pics. :p http://www.bigfrank.tv/ TIS

Try a 12-Step program Yeah, I know what you mean. We NJ/NY folks usually meet about twice a year for dinner/drinks, and this weekend was the longest we've spent together as a group. Got kinda addicting, huh? Think we'll have to meet up more often throughout the year! Maybe once more before the nasty 5-month NY Winter sets in?

How about your apartment, DC? :p Here's a pic of myself with Clem Caserta , a character actor known to often co-star with De Niro, best known for playing Jimmy Whispers in A Bronx Tale. (I added a bit of noise to his face because he's not too keen on his pics being posted online and used for other purposes. Altho, his pics are all over the place anyway, I wanted to honor his request.) Any actor wannabes in the NY area may want to check out his acting school PS - To the attendees - Anyone else besides SC and me get really sick this week, or was it just a coincidence?

Geoff, Sorry you SC/L got sick. No, I feel fine. Maybe you caught a bug a Wrigley's . Since I didn't go to the game, and you guys did. Just a thought. In any case, hope you all are feeling better real soon. TIS

Turbull - Congrats! I love Arizona, and visited every year in my middle and high school years when my grandparents lived there (Sun City). Every year we'd tour a different part of the state, and I recall Prescott on the way to Sedona and Flagstaff. I always said to myself my winter home would be in Arizona. And Prescott isn't quite as arid as the desert areas I'm used to visiting, so I think you got a great location! Excellent! Save a room for me!! If you go golfing down in Scottsdale and see Alice Cooper, say hi for me

Originally posted by DonMichaelCorleone: Can someone explain to me what this "convention" was in Chicago, or is it not something everyone is supposed to know? if its not I'm sorry for asking the question DonMichael, The convention in Chicago was a " Golden Age Of Gangsters Convention " which obviously was a collector's show/convention of Mob memorabilia. Many of us from these boards had decided that this convention was a good venue for us to meet and have a little Gangster BB convention/get together of our own. So several members of these boards flew in or drove in from different parts of the country to meet each other and at the same time attend the convention. If you look at some of these posts in this thread you will see pictures of us at the convention. Let me say this my friend, and I know that I can speak for all of us who attended ; we had a really great time! I sincerely would love for many more board members to attend our next Gangster BB get together be it at the second annual Golden Age Of Gangsters Convention or just a Gangster BB get together of our own. http://www.goldenageofgangsters.com Don Cardi

Congratulations on your home purchase TB ! Although I've only driven thru it, I hear Arizona is very nice. Why, you'd be just a hop, skip and a jump away from me (well kind of)! We'll have to do lunch! :p Good luck to you! TIS

Originally posted by Turi Giuliano: Whatever happened to the upcoming Clem Caserta film Jimmy Whispers? Did that fall through? Turi, According to Clem, it should be out directly to cable sometime soon. He told us that he was in negotiations with several cable companies. What originally happened is that the sound people who were in charge of the sound and sound cuts of this movie somehow screwed up and the sound did not come out too well. It would have been too expensive for him to re-shoot those scenes so the cable companies may buy this movie from him and absorb the expense of correcting the sound problems. I do know that Clem is currently working on another movie titled " The Great White Hope " which is about a fighter. If I hear anything else about both these movies I will keep you posted. Don Cardi
