Town of Bolton people / i

I do. Help! / I

analyze the council Tuesday. / i

Look at this guy, Mike.

Not even know the correct number.

Bolton Village is home

of 37,512 people.

You know what this business

mean to them?

The thought makes Vaillant

think will be evicted.

The idea of ??Vaillant.

This means better

services, more wealth.

This means that when

obstructs one toilet,

scares, I paint the wall

and repair the glass.

Vaillant says Donegan Soltstein

for rent Yankees yuppies.

This is a big problem for

the people of Bolton Village.

A big problem

New York City.

Do you think it will be good for urns, sir?

You know, Mike.

If, for readers The New York Post,

means a reward

Who am I to argue

about it? Excuse me.

Yes?

Of course, it was just a joke.

Make the deal. Bring him here.

Thank you. Okay, Mike.

Out.

- Do not do the work of others.

- Good luck on Tuesday, Mayor.

Thank you. Look,

one for the car, one for women ...

Another for the child. Please backpack.

- See you later.

- Not later

Mayor ...

You know, Billy ...

take threats

terrorists very seriously here.

Very well.

Even good

Catholic children like you.

- Until then, always civilized.

- Good to see you, Mayor.

- Have you heard the speech of this kind?

- Something.

You know, to be honest,

well think outrageous.

What? The fact no competition?

Right.

Have you ever been

bolder than tactical.

I do not know what happens to me. Always

try to be different.

Do not even try.

It is his strong point.

- Whiskey?

- No, I'm driving, thanks.

Billy ...

What if you just have to

put a drink for you?

And leave it there as a symbol, you know?

Step away from the guy now?

Have I told you about Johnny Incransano?

I think so, once mayor.

Every day I appeared in Queens

this guy was chasing me.

Every day.

What could I do.

I was just a child.

Two years ago, got into

Incransano in trouble with the law.

Of which no man

get rid of easily.

Then I was

involved with that, now ...

scratch your ass without asking permission,

becomes weeks hiking.

Jack reminds me Valliant

Johnny Incransano much.

- Have you hunted?

- No.

You should try it.

It would be a born hunter.

And dogs love.

You know, women call

to dogs men.

Suggesting that no

We are reliable and fair.

But dogs are not like that.

And if men are dogs,

What the hell are the women?

Have you ever seen

a b*tch in heat, Billy?

Crawling through the grass

able to cure his desire.

And find a way to escape courtyard

rear, like any dog.

Not sure I understand, Mayor.

I need your help to find

the bastard who is

f***ing my wife.

Do you think she is having an affair?

I know what it is.

Maybe I should call

The Post to confirm.

She is smarter. Also.

- It's like a ghost.

- Maybe not exist.

Still, I want pictures.

I want to know who he is, where is.

The size of your penis,

how long it lasts.

If you have sex

on site or at home,

if you like or pretends he.

And I want to know everything

Election Day.

What this may

change in the election?

New Yorkers ...

elect drunkards, bohemians,

Italians, Jews, blacks and homosexuals

but do not choose a man

wife is eating the

another in the back.

Now, this Jack Valliant

is a club for me.

It's easy to sit behind the desk,

but his team did not hesitate.

And if you miss that

until next Tuesday?

So will the $ 50,000

easier than you have earned.

- Half now, half later.

- Half of today?

- Now. What do you say?

- Accepted.

- Get what you need.

- You can go, Mayor.

Consider it done.

Take agenda my wife to leave.

Something wrong?

When I called, no

imagined would be for something.

Right.

Neither do I.

- It's good to have him back.

- Thank you, Mayor.

Administrative Cheque. 25,000.00 U.S. dollars

- Do you have time for a coffee?

- Have you seen my keys?

At the table next to

his collection of sauces.

It seems that we give here.

- I have a contract well yesterday.

- What legal.

I will send the data by MSM

launch tomorrow, okay?

No, I will not do.

These guys are going too far

this talk of metrosexual.

I do not care if she's a lesbian

or drama, fine.

But a man with a beard

stuck to every detail ...

- This is not legal.

- Impersonating interested.

It's only one night, dear, please?

It's not every day that his girlfriend

star is his first film.

- You asked for both.

- Keys Please.

Yes.

Maybe I spend a little

feel mixed powder.

No.

I feel uncomfortable in

around these people.

Messrs. and SARS, the first lady

New York, Kathleen Hostetler. / I

We did it!

Finally, a New York quality.

Some said that it was

the time to fight for it.

I say there is no time

to fight for what we believe.

To say that there is no time

to oppose the bulliyng.

Even the most violent and powerful.

Especially,

against the powerful.

This makes victory sweeter.

Today we declare our victory.

Today, wholeheartedly declare ...

hands up and this is my life

love and how the I choose.

Thank you.

Come on, man, show your face.

Damn it!

- Read the "The Times" today?

- No.

I read "The Post", as

the rest of New York.

Publisher interesting.

This more for a magazine

gossip for the rich.

You are not rich, Nick? Filthy Rich.

The latest developments

are proof of that.

Listen to her voice last night.

As the night

opening of Mama Mia, said

Queen standing just for you.

Someone caught his eye?

You know that many of them are

excited about this new law.

Who?

Arly.

He said he never wrote

pre nuptial life.

- You remember him, right?

- I still think about him every day.

No mention about

yesterday's elections.

It was not an appropriate forum.

Honey ...

It's election season.

Any appropriate forum.

Acting correctly.

To the left.

Is that what you do all day?

Spying on women

beautiful fancy restaurants?

Yes, if they attend the best.

- We should eat more often.

- It is almost with his key.

- It means that I will receive this month?

- Vai.

So I phone bill.

- He's my brother, what I can do?

- Submit a prepaid card.

Right. I really should.

Right?

Sing Sing is not a good place

for guys with a good heart.

Why the mayor called, Billy?

I wanted to talk about some things.

- What should I do?

- Slow down, looks at me, smiles.

Stand up and take your

robe, smile and keep talking.

- My heart was good, Billy.

- Insurance.

Come here. You walk out the door.

When the other party,
