Jeesh, it's 2:27 in the morning...when the downtown library opens at 9 a.m. I'll peruse the huge, newish biography of Ho Chi Minh by William J. Duiker. It's gotta have a reference to his favored brand of cigs. Michael Pugliese "You've got your own brand of cigarettes now baby! You've come a long, long, way!" Virginia Slims slogan, early 70's.
