>>HJ, and I thought you were old.<< I was hanging around with the Sicilian Charlie "lucky" Luciano, Meyer Lansky, and the rest of his Jewish mob well before you where born. Don't tell Craig I still have an investment in a Las Vegas casino and my partner is a Jew! >>There is a lot about Lansky that is apocryphal. Did he, for instance, meet Bugsy Siegel and Lucky Luciano on the same day? Probably not, but the story still floats around about how Lansky, the hard working son of Jewish immigrants, happened along one day and found Siegel and Luciano brawling over the favors of a prostitute the Italian was pimping. Lansky, the story goes, hit Luciano over the head with a tool from his apprentice's box and stopped the fight. The known facts fit --Luciano did run some bordellos and no one disputes that Benny Siegel liked the ladies.<< crimelibrary.com
