i am really done! i wanna know who the boss is and why vermouth doesnt age...but first who is rum maybe if we knew who rum is maybe we get a hint about anokata? so does anyone have any theory about rum?

There are no good Rum suspects and nothing to be learned just from knowing who Rum is. (seriously. If you knew now that Rumi Wakasa was Rum, what would you learn other than the association between code names and genders was not universal?) Gosho will almost certainly handle the issue of the contradictory descriptions through at least one being in terms of mannerisms, and I would expect the association of that mannerism to a description (old, well-built, or feminine) to be fairly abstract and esoteric.

My guess is that Rum is 3 people. 

The teacher assistant, the sushi chef and the police guy.

Gosho has already debunked that theory in one of New Year postcards, stating that Rum is one person.

Well, crap. There goes my theory.

Frankly... I don't care who RUM is in the end. I just wish Gosho would start wrapping things up.

I'm pretty sure everyone except those who make money from the series would like to see that.

I don't like it. Someone can be sneaky without being strong and someone can be strong without being sneaky. There is absolutely no relationship since sneakiness has nothing to do with muscles. Also, the possibility of blond hair causing him to be mistaken for an old man is incredibly flimsy, even if his hair is so pale that it looks white. While hair color can give clues to someone's age, his stature and posture say young man, not old man, even at a distance.

In My opinion Rum is most likely the person who is painted as least likely Rum candidate by Gosho.

If Kuroda was Rum, then Haibara would have been sheesh-kebab by now.

If that half-mad teacher was Rum then she wouldn't be glaring at the police chief and picking bones with him. The second in command of any criminal organization does have fair idea about the identity of the police chief.

That Bishonen Butler is another red herring, he's confident of his physical abilities, that's why(during cafe Poirot stabbing case)he though that he could take on the assailant even in the dark. His manoeuvres are stealthy enough, even Bourbon didn't notice his presence before he butted in. When he heard the cry he quickly recognized that the person was attacked, while it's 10 times more likely that the person was dying due to cardiac arrest, so he can distinguish among screams and pinpoint which is what. More like a body-guard material.

The Sushi chef is the most devious person of the lot, he didn't want to become Kogoro's disciple, he wanted to accompany Kogoro on a murder case. That's some devious business brewing, also he is not afraid to touch his apparently injured eye which is under recuperation. The common sense is that an injured eye if not guarded properly can lead to severe infection but the Sushi chef gives a damn to it, just to alleviate Conan's suspicion. I think that eye can't be shown to anyone as that eye is probably fake. His criticism of Pirate's spirit is also double layerd, on the surface it's like Pirate Spirit(RUm) is a weak horse(unworthy operative), but the race was already over and despite the rumour of being a weak horse Pirate's spirit won the race. So it was directed to Kogoro about his(supposedly) uncanny ability to pick the diamond out glass jewels.
