He went looking to make friends with guys from Southie? Where did you come up with that? Joe ran with Buddy Mclean.
I'm a Bronx Italian American guy, buddy. I don't pretend to know anything about the Boston Irish. If I got the Southie part wrong, I got it wrong. But he was still looking to hook up with Boston based guys after he went into the program, and that did him in. Am I wrong about that?
I know I read somewhere that he hooked up with that Chalmas guy and it didn't do him any favors. My point was, if he stayed away from those guys the Patriarcas never would have found him. That's all.
