Arthur Salvatore WoW comments??

Ok, I get the polite hint: you guys are expecting *me* to do the dirty, rig picking & storing, job. After all, Detlof lives just (1500 miles) round the corner from me... I'm happy to help.

Kelly, I'm looking into suitable charters. I understand your hourly rate runs into 3digits, so I asked for a F16 to fly you over -- will that be OK?

Here is a short report as promised:
1. No news from Detlof
2. There are indeed strange looking young women in the streets, who indeed have more bulges underneath their clothing than nature would allow. To me indeed it looks like handgrenades and yes, it could be uzis, not golfclubs.
3. Infrequently there are strange bursts of noise which seem to come from somewhere near the vicinity of the jail. It has chased all the birds and squirrels away, dogs howl and cats spit and act strange.
4. Two extra charter flights from Sicily are due this afternoon.
(Which reminds me, Greg, wouldn't take an F16, make it a stealth fighter, which is a two-seater anyway, because I'm sure Salvatore's men can decipher this page)
5. Careful about D.'s rig: It may well be boobytrapped by now by the S. mob.
6. Shall try and see poor D. now, who must be on a very cold turkey!
Will keep you posted.

Here's a thought: maybe we can "toeten zwei voegel mit ein stein". Why don't we sell Detlof's remaining equipment on Audiogon and post it to Dssman. We can stipulate "buyer must pick up, personal cheques only". I would pay a mark to see that exchange with AS's flittchens. Maybe the uber flittchens aren't women after all - might explain the bulges.

If Detlof is going cold turkey I hear butter helps smooth things out.

K, I'm checking out prices on Stealths right away. Had fresh butter delivered from Normandy today: can we smuggle some to Detlof? Should we join forces with Don S.'s boys & generate a few alliances? The Don could orchestrate a suitable reception for Dssman.

BTW, what does "Dssman" stand for?

Wirehead: Do you mean Dr. Dssman?? Small world, 'cause he is the consigliere of the Salvatore clan, didn't you know?...and I shouldn't say this here, but D. is high an colesterol, I've brought him cognac instead, the best and not the cheapo stuff. That had methylated aditives in it, which must have driven him nuts. He finished the bottle in a jiffy and had a funny smirk on his face, perhaps he's planning something, so I would wait before you fly Cornfed in.
