I posted this before
When I was a teenager
And worked at a deli in the neighborhood

Greg used to come in for his cigarettes and coffee daily.
I had no idea who he was at the time, I was just a dumb kid.

I actually charged him for what he bought and he looked at me, with a look like he was shell shocked.
I was just doing my job, it was my first week working the counter.j

I forget how the owner found out it so long ago

It was like what I did…
The owner pulled me aside and told me what I did
He apologized many times for me “NOT KNOWING BETTER”
I had to apologize to him.

It was the talk of the deli afterwards other worksers came in and were laughing about it.
I heard you charged GREG SCARPA

I never forget how terrified the owner was when talking to him
Greg didn’t really say two words

After that and until I stopped working there
I would drop everyone else I was helping
Run over to him, he would tell me what he wanted,
I would give it to him, he never said two words to me.

It’s comical that Messy Marvin stood up to him and shot his eye out.
Historically you would never mention DeRosa, Messy and Scarpa in the same sentence.

Because Messy Marvin was a SLOB, I am almost positive that he was on the spectrum, back then we didn’t know what the spectrum was, just to give you an idea of the caliber of Messy.

They only had the balls to do that because at that time Scarpa was outed and it was open season on him.
Marvin and DeRosa hooked up with shooters from the
Luke’s.
