Quote of the Century! 2/28/51

Offered up by a witness during the Special Senate Hearings on Organized Crime.

Senator Charles Tobey (R-NH): Young lady, what makes you such a favorite of the underworld?"

Virginia Hill: "Senator, I'm the best goddamned cocksucker in the world!"

Oh. Well ... OK, then.

1. LMAO!

A bit of history trivia:

Virginia Hill - nickname "Flamingo"

Virginia Hill - Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel's girlfriend

Flamingo Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, NV rumored to be named for her; the Flamingo was a Benjamin Siegel enterprise.
