BILLY BULGER, THE HARVARD CLUB, AND MY MOTHER!

"Never Talk Issues -- Sing a Song!"  So inscribed Billy Bulger on my copy (the first edition) of his book, WHILE THE MUSIC LASTS: MY LIFE IN POLITICS, at a booksigning held last week at the Harvard Club in Boston.  Billy Bulger and my mother had the same philosophy.  Keep them laughing -- or as my father would say (although he always talked issues), Laugh and the world laughs with you; cry and you cry alone!
