"The cigarette lighter in cars was invented in 1936 by Charles Grodin. Grodin, riding a wave of success after the successful "Beethoven" movies, invested fourteen dollars into a brothel targeted at Vietnamese kittens and the McDonald's fry guys. One night, an angry Donald Trump set fire to the establishment; Bronson became a hero by rescuing four of the animatronic characters from Chuck E. Cheese. He then thought that the power of fire should be harnessed for the powers of good, such as by lighting cigarettes in cars." (jabxvi)
