Deep Uvula Dishes


So this morning I got a call from my source I call  'Deep Uvula' (DU).  I call him/her that for no particular reason other than DU's my 'Deep Throat' -style informant and I've always found the uvula to be a funny organ.  Don't you?

I mean really, what the hell does it do?  Just hangs there and gets infected. Who needs it?  Not me.  Got rid of my tonsils, my uvula's next.

Well, unlike that fleshy little punching bag hanging at the back of GA's throat, Deep Uvula performs a function; bringing dish from the deepest bowels of the 'inside' and sharing it with yours truly.  Today, DU spoke at length over the telephone while I typed away like a mad woman, taking notes.

Minus the typos and sentence fragments, here's what Deep Uvula had to say, nearly verbatim.  In the sequence DU relayed it to me.

The topic- what all of Hoboken's talking about and will be for some time to come:

The Russos-with Mama Russo calling the shots, Dad helping  with strategy, and Junior- are planning a huge counter-offensive, going to the troops and old guard... they are reaching down to the "bottom of the barrel" to stop the damage and plan to "take out the mayor and Reform"... because if Mike goes down, the rest are going to fall.  They're back to war... whatever it takes... they're hitting the mattresses. Heard that Russo thugs were going to show up at the Malibu tomorrow to heckle the authors. Lots of activity at the Russo Association, the question: how can we distract attention from this mess?

"Problems" with Beth Mason.  She's not so on board... feels like she's getting played and looking very dirty.  Mason and Russo are like 2 scorpions engaged in a death spiral. The Russos will turn on Mason in a heartbeat, they're only aligned with her for her money.

The Russos are nervous that no one's come to their defense (allies)... no one's come out publicly for them. Including Mason- she's been cool and didn't jump in to say anything, hasn't indicated she's behind him. Question about Nino- will he go along with it? Nino is a partner in a reputable law firm... last thing he needs is the label of hanging out with crooked politicians.

Ian Sacs didn't work out the way they planned and Ann Holtzman fell flat... they are going after Jen Giattino and her husband, no-one's husband or wife is safe.  No one can find dirt on Greg Lincoln.

A lot of screaming about how Ian didn't get fired and Russo's back on the front page.For all the effort they put into the story nothing's happened.  Once the situation played out and they heard there was an altercation they tried to take full advantage of it to get rid of Ian and hurt the mayor.. they were posting about it before the handcuffs were off the guy from sources inside City Hall... and it didn't work.

The Russos are frustrated... very frustrated. They've been in control for decades, always had success at controlling the political message, controlling the political dialogue... you had to ask them if you wanted 'in' or 'out' but now they can't seem to control anything anymore.  The only thing they were able to control was winning Tim Occhipinti's election because they bought it. Their political games always bore results- they were able to get rid of people. Yes the Russos are frustrated... in the change that's happened, in not being able to get their way anymore, you can sense it in their 'bravado' in the levels to which they're stooping with Ian.

They're still smarting over the police fiasco which is why they're coming out with the story that the mayor is making Hoboken an unsafe place to live and that she's dismantled and destroyed the police department.

The Russos thought the Ann Holtzman Hoboken411 piece was a waste of time, and that they had so many facts wrong about her.  They thought it was stupid to have written it the way it was.  The Russo people think Lane Bajardi's a "joke".  They tolerate him because he comes attached to Beth's  money.  But no one thinks he's very smart.  He was behind the Ann attack. Quote: "Lane, that jerk, he wasted too much time on that stupid dumb story about that Holtzman woman".  Mason is livid at Ann. (GA note: Deep Uvula didn't understand this until I explained that Holtzman used to be Mason's personal assistant) 
Deep Uvula is digging up more on this unfolding story... stay tuned.

  4. Nce pic, GA. Perhaps you should send a full size glossy to the Weasel for his Easel. This may explain why the ususal minions have been noticeably absent from their posts.

  6. Thanks, k. I actually love this one- not 'cause it's great but it's got that cheesy 70's porno-vibe. Who knew a uvula could be so sexy? Look how it glistens.

    I wish I could slap on a soundtrack.

  7. Thank you Sam, but you should be talking to The Uvula.

    Hey, we miss you here. And things are nuttier than a Snickers bar, just they way you like 'em.

    Can you believe all this?

  8. Hey K

    I think the "silence of the blogs" is something akin to that big, long inhale right after someone breaks an expensive vase, or a door swings open, suddenly revealing the wrong person in the wrong place with their pants around their ankles. And as you can see so far since, not only are they still in a re-groping(sic) period, but they really, so far, have no credible ploy but to change the topic.

    And GA, take heart, I think these latest developments will ultimately spell the end of a bad era. So don't look so down in the mouth.
