Second of all, "The Sopranos" is highly degrading to those of Italian-American extraction.

Third of all, the "Bada Bing" is actually a place called "Satin Dolls" and is NOT a topless bar. It is a bikini go-go bar. It is illegal in the state of NJ to have a topless bar that serves alcohol, and Satin Dolls sells alcohol. The "Bada Bing" is pure fabrication because they show topless dancers in an alcohol-serving establishment.

youse may want to think twice about comparing anything to the "sopranos"

I live in Joisey, too. And yuse guys better believe that they ain't no fookin' mafia around hey.

Fookin' right there ain't no mafia. Who said there was? When I find out...

How about The Fairly Odd Parents?

Bree= Timmy. Always into some fine mess, often involving his parents.

Daniel = Wanda. The level headed one who always has to save the day.

Jonas = Cosmo. Cute, but goofy, doesn't contribute much.

The Order = Vicky. Ultimate badness.

I think I like this comparison the best!

I am from Jersey as well. Unless you're covering up for your shady relatives, you must be pretty naive to think there is no mafia or organized crime in Jersey. True, it's not exactly how they portray it on the Sopranos, but....

There are at least four families operating out of NJ:

1.NJ Faction of the Genovese Family http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genovese_crime_family
2.NJ faction of the Lucchese Family http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucchese_Family
3.NJ faction of the Philadephia Family(Whatever it's left of it) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philadelphia_crime_family
4.Actual Jersey Family Named Decavalcante
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_DeCavalcante_Crime_Family

Anyway, I'm not a big mob expert, but I happen to know this stuff because a lot of my family members are cops in Jersey.

Also, I think the correlations between LG15 and the Sopranos are pretty weak. Amusing, though. The Sopranos is my favorite show of all time.
I'm half Italian and my grandparents are from Italy. I don't find the show offensive, but they probably would Wink

Johnny was just kidding around about the mafia thing (hence the Mafia-like accent...). If you are reading something from Johnny, best to check the reality at the door and just have a good laugh.

LOL! Johnny takes some getting used to. When I first joined this forum, I thought he was a complete maniac weirdo.

Ok, I still think that, but now he makes me laugh!

I'm from Jersey, too! I have to say that I love your avatar :O)
