You want to mandate restaurants to have a glassed in section with it's own air system?? If they did, would you be happy? I thought not. They have even offered to have two separate buildings, with the same food and the same ambiance ... nope. not good enough. Self absorbed non smokers demand access to both buildings because they think they are missing something. Yes they are ... the fun people. I was just at a party in a restaurant. After eating we smokers all went outside for a smoke. Some non-smokers tagged along to avoid boredom. Left about 2/3 of the party sitting there twiddling their thumbs.. They sat in dumb silence until we got back. Then the party resumed. Anti-smokers are often a sad lot. Walk around all their lives with a stick up their ass just to live a few more years of their uptight misery. Pretty sad. Some are okay. They usually do other drugs. My argument all along. A longer life expectancy is the reward for a dull, very dull life. Gotta love the rationalizations of the simple-minded. I watched my great-grandmother sit in a chair in my grandmother's living room for 15 years. She watched TV, ate and slept. I don't think she was doing much more five years before we moved back east. So, for 20 years she watched TV all day long and didn't do much else. Is that how you want to spend your years from 80 to 100? There's no reason to believe your familial experience is *the* pattern for all older people. I know a few guys well into their 80's who are actively involved in intellectually complicated "mover and shaker" tasks that would be beyond the abilities of many half their age. Neither of them are "smokers." I had a relative who died at 99 after a long, healthy, active life, and she was sharp as a tack until the very end. Hey, it's perfectly ok with me if you prefer to die young. On the other hand, my grandfather started smoking "roll yer own's" at age 11 when he lived in rural Skytook OK, and always smoked Lucky's, Chesterfields, Pall Malls, or Camels. The only time he smoked a filtered cigarette was when he had to bum one or pulled the wrong knob on the vending machine. He quit those when he was 78 and went with a pipe. He quit the pipe when he was 85 and passed away at 97. BTW, the week before he died, he was mowing his lawn with a push mower. Damn, Tim, that almost makes me want to start smoking again! Here are the latest results from my "Quit Meter": This will certify that John Leo Herring has not smoked cigarettes for ten years, eight months, three weeks, 10 hours, and 54 minutes. This has resulted in 195,822 cigarettes not smoked, saving $29,373.09 and a great reduction in his Global Warming Carbon Dioxide Footprint. Al Gore is quite proud of him. Furthermore, this will provide him an additional 1 year, 44 weeks, 22 hours, and 30 minutes to spend his daughters' inheritance. Your daughter must be very sad.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Not to mention his wife! ;-) |
