Hey AG are you secretly a cat? You sure do meow a lot haha

I am a novice, but you, pizzaboy... you... you have got a Gift my friend.

But PB's posts contain a ton of details about the life that I have never read or seen anywhere and open up the psychology behind things, which isn't really the focus of most books about the subject.

I must agree. Often I don't know what he and the other knowledgeable posters talk about because it's current stuff that isn't very thoroughly explained anywhere I can see on the internet. But PB's posts contain a ton of details about the life that I have never read or seen anywhere and open up the psychology behind things, which isn't really the focus of most books about the subject.

Pizzaboy is the best, hands down. Stand up guy through and through.

Thank you, Belette.

That's a point I often try to make with the better researchers on these boards, like Hairy Knuckles, Sonny_Black, Ivy League, Sonny Blackstein, Tommy Gambino and countless others. They teach ME things about the who, what and where of some of these guys (dates, charts, etc.).

However, they can NOT tell me what drives them, or, as you put it, the psychology behind it. It's just something that you have to grow up around to completely grasp. And you needn't be one of them to grasp it. Living next to them for fifty something years gives you all the psychological background that you'll ever need.

Pb- for the record anyone that would wish death on an sick old man has a special place in hell reserved for them...im alot younnger than u but I lost my mom to cancer last year, helped my pop take care of her and I know how fuckin stressful and helpless makes ya feel..know u dont know mebut hope u and ur old man are hangin in okay sir

Back on topic though is Joe C still official consig in urs or anyone elses opinions? I believe Crea's status is not in doubt but im curious about the rest of their admin..I read a chart that said.Madonna was official UB any thoughts on that?

Also does neone think Stevie has a front boss? I also read that Capeci thought they had a ruling panel with matty and joe dinapoli? If they have a panel then id assume no street boss?

Caridi was the last identified consigliere by the feds. Whether he still holds that position I don't know. Madonna was identified as the acting or street boss last year and then official underboas earlier this year. Capeci identified Cream as the new boss but apparently received enough info to retract that and reaffirm Amusing as still being official boss. This was backed up by the feds in court testimony. People can argue how much power he has in prison but Amusing has the title at the very least.

The question isn't who has the official title of boss from the FBI. He asked what comtrol does Amuso have. The last time it was known that he gave an order that the family carried out or attempted to carry out was when he ordered the hit on Defede. That was over 15 years ago. Based on that, while he may still be the official boss, he has little control.

I personally believe Crea is the Acting boss/official Underboss and Madonna WAS Acting Underboss.

In 2012 some influential members of the Lucchese family "invited" Amuso to step down as boss. This suggests Amuso has some sort of control over the Lucchese family which doesn't sit well with the majority in the Lucchese family.

The Luccheses don't advertise their orders on the internet and for all we know, he could have sent out an order yesterday.

What happened to not indulging the trolls ??

Last time.

First, I HATE AUTO CORRECT!!!!!!!

Please, stick to New Zealand. I, but not you. Do you have any idea what it's like getting information in and out of Federal prison in the United States? Especially when you're a former or official boss?

You can bet you your local Kiwi that he didn't send out an order yesterday. That's giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming that you're posting from New Zealand.

Yeah Stevie is the power in the family BUT if Stevie wants to appoint someone to the administration he still has to clear it with Vic first.

Wow, your ears must be good if you can hear into the Bronx all the way from Auckland.

And you know that he has to clear it with Vic how?

If he was getting and sending out messages on a regular basis for the past 15 years, I'm pretty sure the feds would have found out by now and he sure as hell would not be in a medium security prison.

Vic did more damage to the Lucchese family than the feds ever did, so why would they care about him sending out messages?

The feds play dirty and with Vic interfering with Lucchese decisions that would play right into their hands.

If the feds need a weapon to destroy the Luccheses, they have it in Vic.

Why would the feds care about a boss sending messages from prison?

Do you think before you type?
