3. I was standing next to a guy in the store |
|
who was buying a pack of Pall Malls and asked, "are these kind very popular?" Old guy at the counter replied, "Four million winos couldn't be wrong."

My Grams was a "closet smoker." Unexpected visits found her with wisps of acrid smoke sans cigarette. We did find Pall Malls so we knew where there was smoke there was a smoking Gram ma. I loved her a lot.

8. They are very popular in former East Germany |
|
Don't know why, but they got a big market share after the reunification. They are gaining popularity in the western part, too.
To me, they stink even worse than other cigs. Had a boss who chain smoked them, except when he got Kreteks (clove cigarettes from Indonesia).
