I was being sarcastic but also saying that both Chris and Chicago are men of reason, we all know the story...just like we all know the story between The Wompanoag and I. It causes both parties (Chris & Chicago) angina, I think we all learned that from The Wompanoag. Just sharing my experience, strength & hope
JCB, please don't put me in the same category as the Don of Chicago circa 1930-2015. Call me a pederast, a cocksucker, an HIV infected junkie, a Puerto Rican. Anything but that.
I wasn't caught lying about who my relatives are in an attempt to give me an edge in debates. I don't claim to be from a city that I only have the scarcest of connections to. I don't enter threads and skullfuck my talking points down everyone's throats until they leave. And if I conducted myself that way, calling myself a "man of reason" would be an oxymoron.
Some people here consider me knowledgeable on some things, if so that comes from old-fashioned research. I've spent (or wasted) man hours, money and travel to further my knowledge. Bonanno Boss Sebastian De Gittano didn't come from knowledge that only I know from being Sicilian, it came from me traveling halfway across the country and going through archives then working with Rick to identify the name as Sebastiano Di Gaetano. There are questions I want to find answers to. But I would never take the easy road by attempting to cement my opinions as fact by saying my mob relative told me. THAT'S the difference.

The same category? I made an observation and said you're both men of reason. That isn't an insult, it's typical in human nature. Nobody, especially me, is questioning your research and/or value to the board. All I'm doing is passing some "friendly" advice to somebody I consider a friend of mine. Nothing more, nothing less.

Since you're asking for it, when he was he the boss?

1909 until Feb of 1912 when he voluntarily stepped down and Nick Schiro was appointed. It's in the article. See his photo below.

It was among the Italians. It was real greaseball shit.

It's a new morning in America... fresh, vital. The old cynicism is gone. We have faith in our leaders. We're optimistic as to what becomes of it all. It really boils down to our ability to accept. We don't need pessimism. There are no limits.
