Whole-heartedly agree. If things had gone a bit different for Milito we never would have heard of Linda Milito, since she'd still be a happy mob wife. Nonetheless, her recounting of a mob associates daily-grind is interestng, like makin the rounds on parking meters to cut of the tops & get at the coins. Almost funny.


Yeah, the day to day stuff was pretty interesting, I was surprised that Louie left so little money when he died, him and his wife seemed to have made a good bit of money both legally and illegally, but it seems they spent it just as fast, and Linda had no problems spending it. She talks about her mental illness sparingly in the book, but by the end you can see the woman is really screwed up in the head.
