Elliot Lebeouf, who's credits include The Molly Song (which I'll explain to another time), is becoming a blogger for the ages. With posts like the insightful commentary girls are cold, the gripping thriller UPS, and the tour de force saturday night back at college, Elliot really shows his range. He now has brought us something truely special, and close to my heart:

in the mid 1980s, steve neal was a member of an exclusive chicago anti-crime squad. similar to donnie brasco, steve neal was forced undercover to unearth many of the secrets of the chicago mafia. it was a tuesday night in february when things got a little too hot, and steve neal was found to be wearing a wire. at that point, paul "little paulie" direnzo took steve neals hand and placed his ring finger into a cigar cutter. steve neal was to admit that he was a fed, or else his finger was to be cut off. however, steve neal kept his cool, and his finger remained intact. this is not the story of how he lost his finger.

Clearly Elliot is a friend and a storyteller, so let's cut the bullshit and get to the absolutely mostly true story of...steve neals finger.
