"A clean colon makes for a happy gangster." --- Carlo Gambino

"Metamucil, now that's more like it! --- Frank Costello

These guys were such effective leaders back then because they knew the two secrets to a happy life: Comfortable underwear and regular bowel movements.

John Gotti was probably constipated.

You bring up an excellent point pb and especially regarding the underwear issue. It's truly sad to see how many people tend to overlook this about them. This brings me to another guy that actually went a step further than Costello and Gambino. That man was Meyer Lansky and as we both know, he was always two or three steps ahead of everyone else. He never wore underwear. To quote him, "I feel more relaxed when I'm not wearing any. The air should feel welcome to play with what it wants to play with."

We also need to keep in mind that when discussing the Genovese family, The Chin began forcing his men as early as 1980, to start wearing crotchless panties. This shockingly embarrassing fact is undoubtedly the reason why there's so few rats in that organization. Nobody is gonna talk now. Ever!

Did Charles Carneglia kill Favara and dispose of his body in acid.

Yes, that is what is believed to have occurred. Then Chucky Carns took a dump that made him feel like he had just slept for 12 hours.
