Bobby got busted!?
 

Oh, Bobby. I always knew you were into nefarious activities but the Mafia! Well I never.

FEBRUARY 7--Dozens of reputed Gambino crime family members and associates were named today in a racketeering indictment charging the New York-based Mafia family with most of the felonies covered in the United States Code (murder, narcotics distribution, robbery, extortion, loansharking, securities fraud, labor schemes, etc.). But we're going to focus on the 83 wiseguy nicknames listed in the 169-page indictment, which was filed in U.S. District Court in Brooklyn. As seen on the following pages, the charged hoodlums include "The Greaseball," "Bobby the Jew," "Tommy Sneakers," and "Mike the Electrician." Some arrestees, like Gambino captain Leonard DiMaria, even have multiple nicknames. DiMaria, the indictment notes, is known alternately as "L," "Lenny," "The Conductor," "Nike," "Uncle," and "Fatso." Until his death in June 2002, John Gotti, pictured at right, headed the Gambino family, which, next to the Genovese crew, is the country's second most powerful Mafia group.


:lol:

Hey Jonny I got a sweet set of lead shoes with your name on them

Fahget abot it!

Someone's jamping for a clamping.

Cement shoes, goomba. :lol:

See, that's why he got busted. He wasn't a very SMRT gangster.

Actually it's concrete. Cement won't hold together on its own.

I know that. In fact, I edited my post from "concrete" to "cement" because I remembered that's how all the gangsters in film noir refer to them. :lol: My engineer brain was overriding my semantic detail brain. Wait, those are the same one. I'm confused.

You guys are failing to see the true problem with concrete. You see each concrete company as a unique mixture, certain building codes have to be met but after that it's up to the manufacturer. So a smart detective would be able to find out where the concrete came from, after examining the various compounds which make it up. Which could in turn could lead them to me.

Why do you think nobody uses that form of execution anymore?

Because the Chinese construction boom has driven up the price of concrete, whereas the falling educational standards and insufficient school budgets have forced cuts in music programs, thereby making piano wire cheaper through reduced demand? :confused:

Um... the whole point of "cement shoes" is so the body is never found 'cause it's at the bottom of the river. It doesn't matter one bit if the concrete is traceable... if the body is found, the gangsters are screwed anyway.

But if they dragged the lake...

There are no lakes in the 5 Boroughs area, or north Jersey.

You can mix your own concrete with supplies from Home Depot.
