This Was A Surprise! “A little background on what I'm talking about here. There is a little bar in Brooklyn that I have been frequenting since approximately 1979. I used to spin records there for a few years also back then. When I met Maple in the mid-80's, that kinda became our little 'pre-parent days' watering hole. Well, through the years, drinking nights became less frequent, so nights at this spot came around on occasions when I would get together with my old friends or sometimes Maple and I would go out there for the evening. It was always a good, fun place to us. Well, the place is still around. We go there occasionally. And some of the people have remained the same and, as is to be expected, some new faces always emerge. Well, a few years ago, a new bartender came on the scene. Last night, I was out with a friend of mine and he asked me about this guy, Louie. I said , yeah, I know him him. Not well, or really personally. Just customer- bartended conversation, that's all. As a matter of fact, I found the guy to be basically dumb as a stump. We3ll, imagine my surprise when i found out that he is now one of the biggest mob rats going. He is in witness protection and apparently made millions in Wall Street pump and dump scams and a host of other activities. Here's the link to the book. He is pictured at the very bottom of the page... Link” 8:48:04 AM 6/13/03 “Which of those wise guys is you, treebeard? (Or can't you tell us? shhhh..)” 8:52:15 AM 6/13/03 “Aero, go to the picture of the boat. I am the one wrapped in the carpet being dragged behind the boat by a heavy chain...” 9:03:09 AM 6/13/03 “But you didnt finish telling the best part of the story... this guy was such a meat head he spent most of the night standing in front of the mirror flexing his muscles. When he would answer the phone he would stand there in the mirror with his arm up in the air flexing. This is why I remeber this guy. It was soo funny and I was laughing about it for days.” 9:10:31 AM 6/13/03 I resent “"dumb as a stump"! I'm "stump" and have a PhD! (Okay, bring 'em on!) :-)” 9:45:27 AM 6/13/03 “lmao Stump. I wholeheartedly apologize. I meant a tree stump. (Wow, I just insulted myself!)” 9:47:03 AM 6/13/03 “I can just picture this guy from Maple's description. What a hoot. I'm on a mob kick since finally watching the entire first season of the Sopranos. What a killer show. Watch it or yas might get clipped!” 12:25:01 PM 6/13/03 “What a killer show. roseymonster 12:25:01 PM 06/13/03 pun intended?” 12:25:52 PM 6/13/03 “Its all happenin' in NYC!” 12:46:07 PM 6/13/03
