Hi, my name is Joseph Pigliatti. I am also known as Joey the
Pig, Shotgun Joey, Joey the Mook, Mug Shot Joey, Joey Make Me
Weep and Joey Cheesecake. If you don't mind, I prefer Joey the
Pig.
Anyhow, the good people at gambleonthis.com have asked me to
write an article about the time Octavio Waxed Ears Bertolucci
put a hit on me. It is a bad memory but I will try.
The incident occurred at the Miami racetrack. Waxed Ears was a
made man and he was showing off his brand new horse named Sissy.
Waxed Ears loved this horse more than he loved his wife. And I
don't blame him, the horse was beautiful.
I was down in Miami on business and since I love to gamble I
went to the racetrack. I ran into Waxed Ears at the betting
window where he insisted on taking me to the stables and showing
me his new horse named Sissy.
Upon seeing the horse I immediately said "Waxed Ears, Sissy is
so beautiful I could make love to it."
Unfortunately for me Waxed Ears is hard of hearing. Hence the
nickname. I later found out that he thought I had said, "Waxed
Ears, you are a sissy and you are beautiful and I want to make
love to you."
As you can see there is a great big difference from what I said
and what Waxed Ears thought I said.
Anyhow, Waxed Ears put a contract out on me the next day. To
make a long story short, I had to make things right with the
local Don, Meatball Moe the Mobster. He squared things up for me
with Waxed Ears. But Waxed Ears has never forgiven me and has
never spoken to me since. Though, every Valentine's Day he does
send me a card with flowers.
I hope the good people at gambleonthis.com liked my article
about how I almost got whacked. I enjoyed remembering it.
Until next time, arrivederci.
