Mob Boss

Yesterday, after a wine induced reflection period, I have come to the conclusion that Earl is really a mob boss. My argument is three part and based largely on media images of mob bosses and more than a little influence from the movie Eastern Promises which I watched yesterday. (Movie not recommended, but it had Vincent Cassell and I kinda like him, plus I didn't have anything better to watch. ) My argument is such:

1. Mob bosses are friendly on the exterior; they make you think that they're the good guy until you get too close or threaten their business and then they hack off your arms. This is by far the most compelling of my argument. On the exterior Earl seems friendly and "calm," but I've seen him attack Randi, Clark and Sarah. He hovers around the dog food , so that they don't want to eat when he is outside. Several times I have returned home and Clark has cowered in the corner-due to what I believe has been some kind of violence. Additionally Earl always tries to take the bones via intimidation tactics. Earl's business? Not sure, he could be dabbling in the medicinal marijuana trade.

2. Mob bosses always have a dim-witted family member whom they are trying to protect.
Randi.

3. Mob bosses like to eat. Earl ate an entire can of Parmesan cheese as well as several sticks of butter and more recently has been snagging mini-jars of Ken's Lite Creamy Cesar dressing whenever he sees the opportunity.
