Hold onto your dreams. They're precious.

Allan May describes it as a cooling off period. He's not explicit about the benefit to Capone. He may have worried about other things besides an alibi, like assassination. Much harder for Aiello to get him in jail in Philadelphia.

Seems like all of it would have been possibly true. It doesn't exactly contradict the motive for getting arrested, when he later fights the charges.

I've read a take on this arrest where he wanted his location to be established as an alibi.

I always enjoy seeing a gangster being described as an olive oil dealer.

I think a bunch of us gave up too easily on LiveJournal and recognize the strategy in making marginalized people feel unwelcome when they've made inroads to building community.

It still fits?

What's the matter, weren't you the president-elect? (I am never going to get over this guy just walking, every single time. It makes no sense to me.)

Still hanging out on FB like an old person. I'm slow to make the migration. I hate having to leave places because the institutions are becoming too hostile.
