Don Smitty - First let me start off by thanking you for starting this congrats topic. You have a heart of gold. Even though at times you may shoot from the hip when you post, knowing you personally, I know that you really wear your heart on your sleeve and that when you speak, it is always from deep down and with care.
Sicilian Babe - aka as my Costanzia. It was an honor to make your aquaintance this past summer, and a pleasure to spend time with you and your fantastic husband. I am glad that I was able to convinced you to attend the summer get together as it gave me the opportunity to make another great friend in my life.
Dontomasso - Again, I really enjoy your knowledgable insight on many issues, especially those over in The Godfather Trilogy thread. I am sorry that you and I were unable to hook up the last time that you were in my neck of the woods. One of these days we will be able to meet.
Snake- I too, really enjoy your posts and also consider you a friend of mine on these boards.
APPLE - I know that you are sincere in what you posted, because I don't think that I've ever seen you congratulate anyone here for a milestone, let alone give a compliment! :p
I am also grateful to have met you this past summer, because by meeting you I've come to realize that you're all talk when rip into someone on here, your bark is really much bigger than your bite!
I'm going to let the cat out of the bag here by telling everyone that in person, you are really a sweet gal.
JustMe - Another member here who has such wonderful insight on many things, especially The Godfather movies. I am always drawn to your posts because I know when I open it up, there is always going to be something interesting and knowledgable. I too pledge my never ending loyalty.
xXx_Corleone_xXx - aka Jack Bauer.
Even though I don't know you personally, I can tell, by your posts, that you are really a standup person, and I respect your opinions. I look forward to our discussions about this season's episodes of "24."
Dr. Who Fixed Lucy - I remember when you first joined the boards and the name that you originally had.
Maybe if you added the posts that you made under that original name, with this name, you would have already surpassed me
! I wish that you would post more over in the GF trilogy thread as I remember some of your past posts there were pretty interesting.
Goombah - Thanks. Here looking at ya kid!
Mignon - MAMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! It was such a pleasure and a treat to finally get to meet the Gangster BB's very own Mama Mig! You are a great lady, and a fun one too. I'll still never forget the look on your face when you walked over to me at the bar, not knwoing who I really was, and said " Are you Don Cardi." and I replied " Don Who? What are you talking about lady?"
Your facial expression will always stay in my head! Here's thanking one of the gangster bb's top ladies! THANKS MAMAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Aziatic - Now you are a person that I both look up to and respect. You never back down, even if you are the only one who believes in what he is saying. You stand by your convictions and I have the utmost respect for you because of that. Hopefully someday you will come to the USA and I will get to meet my friend from Iraq!
Don Zadjali - Thank you, thank you, thank you. When are you coming back over to the REAL LIFE MAFIA thread?
Plawrence - What can I really say. I know that you and I have a lot of different views, and that we may get heated with each other from time to time. But no matter how hot we may get here when debating on the boards, one thing that I will always keep in mind, and in my heart, is that we are still friends, no matter what. And I know that through all your kidding me and making fun of me, that you feel the same way. I've come to realize that even though you and I may be opposites on many things, we are really alike because we both believe in the strength of our convictions. I am definEtly gratefl that we have become true friends. You're a pain in the ass, but I love ya!
THANKS TO EVERYONE!
Don Cardi
