John and Jeff,

The reason my father always replies "we won't talk about that" is because people try to sensationalize a story that they can add to.

You need to remember that the whole question of the mob and Mitch was not given birth by Jeff and I.
That has been talked about long before us and people ask and tell me about it, Is it true, not true,
At this point who knows.
I was told Mitch had dealings or was from Youngstown.
"we won't talk about that" Is not Mitch had no ties, It's not yes he did as well.
But it kind of piques peoples interest because it sounds like there's something there I don't want to talk about.
It's ok not to talk about it, but even a blind man can see that people are going to go hummm.

So if someone said Jeff had ties to the mob I would go NO way, not true.

I no way was I trying to say Bill or lee had dealings with the mob.

BUT for Mr Taso to come to America at like 20 years old with $100.00 bucks and own the Kahiki was it at 26?
One would doubt he had one million bucks by that time, but then there was Mitch.
That's odd to me and many others, there's more to that story.

It's good that there is now a book and Tiki Central so the history can come out and be known.
So many places there is no info on, too bad really.
