Although I had previously watched GF I a few times, and seen parts of GF II a time or two...I have just been "BORN INTO THE GF WORLD." I have just completed watching all three movies from beginning to end, every second of every scene, Badda Bing!. My eyes are open, and now I can see. I have found a new realm to engulf myself into and a sea to now swim in. I have disected JFK matter for the past couple years. I am a new HUGE FAN of the GF world. I just can't seem to get enough. I have been browsing the message board here :gangsterBB all night tonight (apprx 9 hrs.)

Why am I telling you all this?>>> because I am a newcomer to your site Geoff. I read many CW posts, and so many others of you.

After I watched the movies, I found myself continuing to think DEEPLY about the movie...as if it were real life, like it really happened, like I knew the characters (all of them).

So I decided (TONIGHT) to search for GODFATHER material, message boards, etc. To look for other books with in the story. Now I have found out about GF Returns, and GF Revenge? by the FSU Professor.

POINT>>> Thanks Geoff for this site. Thank you to the people on this board. Thank you for the information, the covering up of some open questions. THank you in advance, and where have you all been all this time?

A few things I have to say about <SOME> of the topics or findings:

Fredo couldn't ever be GAY, unless he did prison time. He is a playboy...erratic...spontaneous...stupid...and weak.

Mo Green...is Bugsy Siegel?

Johnny Fontane...is Frank Sinatra (I know, I know -duh)

Hymann Roth...is Myer Lanski

Johnny Saza...is John Gotti

I am going to buy the most elite BOX SET available, be it the 25th year anniversary, or whatever. The most lucrative set that is possible.

I will try to check this board as often as possible, but my schedule is CRAMMED. So please don't expect any posts from me to be posted except maybe once per week.

Respectfully to all,

Not While My Mother Is Alive
