   • 1994 March 18, Patrick Griffin, “Let's Ban Smoking Outright”, in Chicago Reader‎:

     But I was at an age when a stinking twist of additive-soaked tobacco wrapped in brown paper could transform me into a kind of pale, stubble-free Irish bandito.

   • 2007 September 19, Douglas Martin, “Gene Savoy, Flamboyant Explorer of Ruins, Dies at 80”, in New York Times‎:

     Gene Savoy, an amateur archaeologist whose success in finding some 40 Incan and pre-Incan ruins in Peru was matched by a flair for self-promotion that drew on his tales of peril in the jungle, his bandito mustache and Stetson hat, and a retinue of would-be explorers who paid to accompany him, died on Sept. 11 at his home in Reno, Nev. He was 80.
