Shouldn't that be Albany, NY?

The wiseguys up there are schenected.

Hey, it's no worse than SC's joke .

I was groaning even as I typed it. And speaking of your new neck of the woods, SC. These jokes would be bad even by Grossinger's standards .

pizzaboy where your parents from in italy?

"u albanian?"

No. I've just read a small bit about the subject.

However, on a tangent of a tangent, there are a lot of people from Bosnia in my city. I have no doubt that a number of them are Serbs. Do you think that the gap between Croats, Bosnians, and Serbs is really that large if you discount religion and alphabetical systems used?

My grandparents.

My Mom's parents were from Matera, Basilicata. My Dad's parents were from Lauropoli, Cosenza, Calabria. I've traveled to both towns, and spent quite a bit of time in Cosenza. But we haven't been back in quite awhile. Hopefully later this year or early next year. My Dad is almost 85 now, so I want him to see it all again.

thats a good q..no i dont think so,but the nationalist would disagre..we are people living side by side for thousand of years,have the same lango same values and everything..how can there be a difrence when you grow up in a house next to someone who is a croat,speks your lango..if he never says you will not know he is a croat or a muslim..that has been a debate for a long time..that war would not happen if it was in some other place in the world,but balkan i crazy,reagl tough and brutal,non forgiving...like the movie says land of blood of honey,jolie used that line last year but it is used for hundreds of years..if u dot live here u cant understand it..i think it is the west that made us fight ich other,and we only neded a little spark..what can i tell u it is sweet but bloody red

thats real nice pizzaboy,i remeber how my mother felt when we went to napoli,so am sure ur dad appretiates it..very beutifull south italy is,never been to your ancestors place,but sorrento very nice..her father actualy never made it there back to italy,born in bk..wish u a grat trip

Does anybody know where the Pantry Pride Meat Market used to be?

Pantry Pride was a small chain here in New York. So you'd have to be more specific.

The one the DeMeo crew "disposed" of Andrei Katz's body at.
