Howie thread for the week starting with his Sunday Boston Herald column
Some lib on a radio board mentioned Howie “shilling his tome on MSNBC”. I replied:
*—”They were making more money than the old gang from Winter Hill ever dreamed of—$5 million in protection money from one marijuana dealer alone”—Howie Carr, HITMAN p 28
Easy to see why HC’s heart feels like an alligator. Good to meet him again (at book signing in
Peabody). I suppose the paperback issue of the book, due in early 2012, will have additional
stuff about Whitey and Catherine, aka “Mr and Mrs Santa Claus”, being captured. Indeed as
the Herald’s Jessica Heslam tweeted, someone said the $800,000 (and weapons cache) found
in Whitey’s apartment “didn’t come from him having a paper route on Santa Monica Blvd.”...

The funny thing was, when I subscribed to the Globe, I spotted Barnicle as a fabulist and “appropriator” just from his content. Were his editors somnambulant dunderheads? The question cannot be readily dismissed. This was, after all, the Globe.
I've told you a million times not to exaggerate!

Mother of Gawd, have you seen the photo? It looks like the feds pinched Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus.

What a great day — it’s truly a “Whitey” Christmas in June.

I hope “Santa” Bulger delivers up some nice early Christmas presents by singing like a canary and helping take down all the corrupt Mass ho ho hos.

LOL ...
Ooh, the skeered souls in Boston ..
FM,
Both Raccoon and myself found out about FR via Howie. I made the same observation you did not that long ago - Howie must peruse FR and lift a few lines now and again. :)
If it helps, I’m honored. Although, the cheap bastard could throw a free tshirt or book our way! :)
Howie’s the big winner of the “Where’s Whitey” contest ending.
Good job! Barnicle is a piece of junk, period.
Barnicle... fitting name for a groin leech.
No kidding!!! He really does suck...MSNBC is the perfect place for him.
He does lift lines from FR but also from the show itself. Some of the lines that people called in on Wed wound up on the Thu column or was it Friday
For sure!!! It’s all good.
