5. My two greatest fears in Junior High were being forced to join the Mafia,
and being forced by pushers to become a heroin addict. After that came botulism and nuclear war.

9. I worked at a venue that was owned by the mob
Every once and while the big boss would do a walk through and we lived in fear he would catch us slacking off. I don't remember his name, not that I could write it here if I did. but he was pretty scary.
