And at the behest of common sense, I'm going to ask how the hell they got a horse's chopped off head into a bed without the director realizing it?

So, apparently, I'm justified in thinking that he's a jerk for doing that "copy-and-paste" job of my other thread.

For the record, and I already PM'ed this guy a response to the above post, I like Rube and the only reason I chimed in was because it rhymed.

Well, ****, this sucks. I actually thought I had someone on my side there for a second. So, I guess I stand corrected. I guess it's true what they say about this site....the "Style Forum Veterans" all stick together and usually give the cold shoulder to anyone on here that's new, because "newbies" aren't as fashion-savvy and they don't know anything about style, so "as far as we're concerned, they're not exactly welcome in our clique".

You've got this entirely backwards. Connie's husband, Carlo, beat up Connie so that Sonny would come out of hiding and come after him. The plan worked and that's when Sonny was killed. Carlo later revealed this to Michael, who in turn had Carlo killed in the car (remember the scene where he's strangled in the car and he puts his foot through the windshield).

Right, that's it, you've been so wronged here. Sheesh.

So is this time to go to the mattresses? If Rube gets whacked I'm pointing fingers!

in the book, they even described how Carlo crapped his pants whilst being strangled.

The novel implies that Woltz's employees at his mansion were either threatened or paid off by Corleone henchmen.

I had once heard that Woltz's mansion was the historic Rockefeller estate, Pocantico. Anybody know if this true?

Close. It actually belonged to William Randolph Hearst.

Am I the only one who doesn't understand what the big deal here is? If the OP is this easily riled up I wouldn't recommend venturing into the CE forum.

I think that was pretty firmly established quite some time ago.
Are you familiar with my ex-wife?
