Nikki was looking for this info last fall as well

So this must be one long-ass study on par with mapping the human geonome or she failed and needs to take the class over

or it's a scam. Should I provide my bank account#, pin & SS#?

Well, someone posted in the past that a convicted identity thief from Florida named Nicole was on HBO Sopranos boards before, gathering personal info.

The fact that this post was spammed on all the Sops threads and requires following a link and providing info is notable, at the least.

I never understood that, either. You'd be amazed how many college students are writing a thesis on 'Sex and the City'. How much dumber are we as a country going to get that THESE are what we choose to memorialize to showcase our intelligence at the university level?

my favorite character will always be Tony because he is a very peculiar mob boss.
he has a consious otherwise he wouldnt be in therapy and as in the episode "Blue Comet" therapy does help criminals become better criminals and Tony has his own way of doing things this is why I admire him.

It's hard to say because I think all the characters were excellent and the actors who portrayed them the same.

However, I think "Janice" was a fabulous character. Everything from her look, her speech, her persona - the lack of work ethic yet the sense of entitlement, the disdain for some of Tony's actions, yet she wants to hang on him and near him. Her selfishness, her manipulations. Aida Turturro nailed that role, she was terrific.

anyone catch the new Dennys mercial with Paulie?

He hads the kid some monoply money and the kids like u cant do that, Paulies all like Why not?

Kids said it wasnt real money.

Paulie points and says that's not a real breakfest.

Then at the end he throws all the res tof the fake $ at him and tells him to go buyhimself something nice lol.

Classic! LOL! So Chris is your favorite, eh? ;)

I LOVE Tony, he has to be my favorite, he is just irresistable. At the same time I have a great affection and respect for Carmela. What she puts up with from Tony would break most women, but not Carmela. Amazing! (Thanks to Edie to bringing her to life!)

I would have to say Paulie then Tony. Paulie kinda has this personality on him that just makes him seem so real. It just almost doesn't get as authentic as Paulie. He takes his work serious and is a true made member. Tony is awesome also. He has a temper like me, but in some way you never really know his next move. He is kind of difficult to read unless you watch his character more than twice and seriously, just watch.

My favorite has to be Ralphie Cifaretto, can't explain why, Joe Pantoliano did a good job. I like how he was ruthless and funny, Plus he was a sharp dresser, and had nice hair I didn't like how in the fourth season they started to show all the fucked up things about him, like the masochistic sex and what not. There was nothing like that in the third season.

It seems as though Sil is a definite favorite among the fans so I wanted to let you know what he's up to now. Steven Van Zandt (aka Silvio) is also a guitarist and singer in Bruce Springsteen?s band.

I?m working with Sirius Radio?s all-Bruce Springsteen all the time channel and wanted to make sure that Sopranos fans knew where to find Silvio now. More info and a three day free trial are here: http://www.sirius.com/estreetradio.

Christopher, here is one of the reasons, when Adriana flipped he stayed loyal to the family real "stand up" guy. he sacrificed the love of his life to stick to the code of the streets. so what if he fantasized about killing tony they were just thoughts. in his final episodes he mentioned taking the Gravano route I dont think he would of really did it, he was obviously crying for help and nobody came.
