Does tobacco and alcohol figure into your pursuit of
happiness?

Weird question Bert.


Why is it a weird question? The government is interfering
in
your
pursuit of happiness.

Yes, but alcahol and tobacco aren't involved.


Why are you against other people pursuing happiness?

How did you ever come up with that notion?


Read through the message above. We separated from the limey
*******s to
enable our unencumbered pursuit of happiness.

One last time Bert. Alcahol and tobacco are not factors in my persuit
of happiness. If they are key to your or others persuit of happiness,
it's not my concern. Have Harry parse it out for you if you are
having trouble understanding. Now leave me alone on the subject,
please.
