Ron Butters' quote re Lola reminds me (perhaps erroneously, and I have

not checked the libretto) that Carmen refers to herself thusly in _Carmen_.



To this add the Duke of Plaza-Toro's boasting song from Gilbert and

Sullivan's Gondoliers, preceded by the line spoken by the Duke "The Duke of

Plaza-Toro does not follow fashion-- he leads it! He always leads

everybody!" A great campaign slogan for someone- Dole perhaps?
