Kind of a fat cigarette, wouldn't you say?

That would explain you wouldn't want one.

When a cigarette has been put out we call it a cigarette butt so that's probably where you've heard it from.

Now that I know what it is, I wouldn't mind recieving one. Before this I wouldn't have known what the heck it was.

Now how the heck I remember this, I have no idea...but I do.

When I was a youngester...my big sis used to buy 16 Magazine! It was great. I remember reading an article once about The Monkees. It was about a rehersal for their t.v. show and they were having their lunch.
Anyway, my fav Monkee...
Davey Jones
...was quoted as saying ''you wanna jam buttie?''. I never knew what it was...but I knew that if it was coming from him...then I wanted it!

How the heck did that stay in the back of my mind all these years...uh, decades even


Thanks for finally clearing up this memory for an ol' Monkee fan!

Poor Richard indeed! Wasn't it funny when he retired and then she got to boss him around all day?
The poor, long-suffering man!

No problem about the hijack. Now I can watch those shows and understand a little more than before.
