I was just leafing thru the Valachi Papers for the millionth time and came across the attempted assassination of Costello. I'm trying to figure out a reason for the Chin to call out to Costello before firing at him. I can't come up with any. When I first read the Valachi Papers eons ago I figured the Chin was just a dumbfuck street soldier, but the years have proven he must have had a little something going for him, despite his feigned craziness. Any theories?

A stupid, dumb mistake by Gigante. Probably nothing more than that.

Maybe Gigante was trying to catch Costello's attention, make him stop walking and thereby turn a moving target into a stationary one..


"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."
Winter is Coming

Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.

He was told to say, "Michael Corleone says hello," but he forgot. lol


Ntra la porta tua lu sangu � sparsu,
E nun me mporta si ce muoru accisu...
E s'iddu muoru e vaju mparadisu
Si nun ce truovo a ttia, mancu ce trasu.
