The Philly Mob Hangs Out Next Door to me

Lucy

So I went with the wife to a his and hers spa treatment thing today (yeah, kinda gay, but w/e it was relaxing and pretty awesome. they even serve booze, in attempt to gain a larger male clientel).

So while the Asian lady is sanding down my nasty calliced feet, i pick up Philadelphia Magazine, and read an article on the current state of the philly mob.

(http://www.phillymag.com/articles/what_ever_happened_to_the_south_philly_mob)

Low and behold, the current top mob hangout is a "private" club/bar, run by the mummers. It also happens to be located RIGHT next door to my fucking house. Explains quite a bit of what I've seen/sniffed going on, and makes me VERY glad that when some of their patrons were causing shit via the open window to my living room last night (cat calling my wife and her friend who was over), that I opted not go out there with one of my "gentlemen's disagreement" devices to end the problem.

Lession learned: Think before you act. It also helps to have a more level headed woman around to tell you your about to do something stupid too Very Happy
