Re: [MBZ] Snook Stylin
I bought this house outside of Boston, the owner was one Frank Bowman, sort of an Irish ne'er-do-well. Anyway, he was telling us his daughter was dating this guy from Providence. So one day Frank looks out his front door and there is a Lincoln limo (no Caddies) out front, 3 or 4 big guys in dark suits get out, then this little old guy. Old guy comes to the door, introduces himself as Ray Patriarca, father of the datee of Frank's daughter. Ray wanted to check things out, make sure they were OK. So Frank, being a guy aware of such things, knows Ray by reputation. Ray was from Providence, you can look him up. Frank had him in for a little refreshment, and was mightily impressed, this apparently was a highlight of his life. --R Donald Snook wrote: Dwight wrote: Or if you started representing Mafia clients then you could ferry them to court in the caddy limo. .

Re: [MBZ] Snook Stylin
I think old Ray might have passed on, and his son was getting some heat from the Feds last I paid any attention to all that (about 10 yr). The boy seemed to be just a goombah, not nearly as smart as the old man. I'll be back up that way next month, will have to see what I can find in the papers (only the Herald ever reported much about that stuff, the Globe was too busy idolizing Teddy (D-UI). How's Buddy (Cianci, former mayah of Providence) doing these days? Has he gone straight? My wife met him once before his little vacation, said he was an absolute hoot. I think he's making pasta gravy now? You know too why they don't drive Caddies, right? Although Paulie Walnuts had one, I never figured that. --R Dwight E.

So you are right-Snook won't make it even with a Lincoln or a Caddie limo. For the record I live 25 miles south of Providence just outside an old sea captain's and fishing village. My grandmother's brother is a guy named Salvador Borrelli. I have only met him 5-6 times in my life. Everyone calls him Uncle Sally. He lives in New Jersey (where all of my dad's family lives) and owns a tiny little pizza joint. Despite its small size, the pizza place does MILLIONS of dollars in business. I always thought that was odd, until I met Uncle Sally at my grandfather's funeral. He also rode in a big black Lincoln, that a guy named Billy drove for him. He was wearing a black shiny suit to my Grandmother's fourth of July party/Funeral Wake. He was drinking bourbon out of a paper cup with the pizza joints name printed on it. It was 9:00 am. My cousin, Anthony, spoke quietly with him in my grandfather's study. Then, he glad handed everyone, kissed his sister and left. My grandmother found out the next day that the mortgage on her house was paid for. The bank just sent her a mortage release with no explanation. No exaggeration. Donald H.

Time to step up Snook. ;) BTW, it does look much better than that home built one a few days ago with the slab of sheet metal where much of that middle window is.

You are right, it does look better. But, I think I will pass on this funeral car. Perhaps if I give up the practice of law and get into the mortuary business it would be a good investment. Donald H.

Re: [MBZ] Snook Stylin
Fellow I worked with a couple decades ago just got disbarred. Seems he was upstanding while a cop and going to law school, but in the intervening time he sort of went astray. Clients were major drug lords in the area. He took payment in cash. first mistake. Second was to put it in his home safe. Third was to forget to put it on the books as income. Went downhill fast after that. Stay away from the lucrative criminals. They will suck you in and make you wish you had kept your nose clean clay On Jul 22, 2009, at 6:48 PM, Dwight E.
