Hilarious! I had no idea Pickles was a chain-smoker. On the other hand, I sort of feel bad for her. How many nights do you think she spent staring at the back of her husband's head while he slept, thinking to herself, "how did I ever marry this idiot?"
Fun fact- I know a little birdie who would normally NOT give up any juicy info, at all.
Until one day he let it slip that not only is Laura Bush a smoker, she's a chain smoker, and at events she requires a room off to the side where she can smoke immediately prior to and after exiting offstage.
Also, you'll notice a SS agent following her with a can of high-powered air freshener, to mask the smell.
