Speaking of that vol. 13 and page 666, did you ever notice that the modern cartoon version of the Devil (Red with a bald head and goatee) looks like V.I. Ulyanov ("Lenin") and Bruto/Pluto in the Popeye cartoon looks like Joe Dugashivili ("Stalin") ? Anything in the archives on that ?
And just the other day I was looking at cartoons with my son and there is now a cartoon show about some kid and Stalin (I swear to god. I am not making this up).
Big Brother works in mysterious ways.
We have some good crap shoots at the Yard, a speakeasy on the Eastside, on Saturday nites, if you are ever in Detroit. It's mostly young boys (mostly Black Russians), but they're tight.
At your service,

Dear Atty. Brown,
I'll have to search the Plunkitt archives for the answer to that one.
I do have manuscript copies of the George Washington Plunkitt correspondence course taken by Joseph Dugashivili. It was obtained for me out of a secret vault in the Carpathian mountains by the mysterious Igor.( sometimes pronounced eye-gore). I am busily translating them one word at a time and should be finished sometime in the middle of the next century. Give or take a few years.
Meanwhile, in the unpublished works of Joseph I.F. Dugashivili vol.13 Page666, it states, " it was really studying that great American revolutionary George Washington Plunkitt that pushed me over the edge." n.b. I won this unpublished masterpiece in a crap game in the backroom of the Russo-Slav club as a consolation prize.
Humbly yours, Tom
