1) Was the "No facial hair rule" ever actually a rule in the Mafia or is that just a myth started by Donnie Brasco?
2) What was Joey Gallo's official ranking? I've heard of him and his brothers having guys around them but never heard of whether Joey was a Soldier or a Capo. How respected was he by Gambino and the other Bosses? Did any of them support his play to take over the Profaci Family?
3) What is the most powerful American family at the moment?
4) Who is the REAL father of American La Cosa Nostra: Salvatore Maranzano or Lucky Luciano? Lucky gets the credit usually, but Marazano created the "Family" structure of Capos, Soldiers, etc and the idea of the Five Families and the Commission and the "Making" ceremony.
5) Can you be half Italian and be made today?
6) Was there ever a figure named "Jack the Barber" or something like that who was a Capo or at least a Soldier in Bensonhurst--I'm talking back in the '60s and '70s? What about a guy with the last name Scotto--same neighborhood, same time period?
