Seriously. Over staffed police department? Eisboch My god you yankees eat a lot of donuts. Here in Tallahassee (roughly 200,000 people), we have only a single Krispy Kreme and the two Dunkin Donuts places closed. I preferred Dunkin and will not eat Krispy kreme. http://tinyurl.com/v2a3z I prefer Dunkin doughnut but I quit going there because their doughnuts tasted like an ashtray. They have a coffe shop (people smoke) where they store their doughnuts (uncovered). They have since gone out of business, too late for the state law banning smoking in places that serve food to have an effect on my eating habits. Fortunately in Maryland most restaurants have banned smoking. One diner we visit up in Annapolis has a smoking section, but it literally is behind glass doors that seal tightly. We have a nice Italian restaurant in our area that used to allow smokers in one section, but the owner listened to complaints, shut down the smoking section and then re-decorated it to get rid of the stench. There's nothing worse than trying to enjoy a meal and encountering the stench created by smokers and their filthy habit. Talk about tyranny of the minority. ~~ sheesh ~~ Oddly, I feel the same way about loud, obnoxious drunks in restaurants. I think we ought to ban the sales of alcohol in all restaurants. I enjoy a glass or 2 of wine with my meal when eating out, as does my wife. Sometime I have a couple of beers instead, depending on the meal. Your attitude on this is "I don't drink and no one else should!" You are also basing your opinion on the actions of a few yet imposing your restriction on everyone. And as you know, it will never happen. Think of the lives that would save. It would help rid the world of drinkers and their brain addling, liver killing, drunken driving addiction. -- "What the hell's the deal with this newsgroup... is there a computer terminal in the day room of some looney bin somewhere?" Bilgeman - circa 2004 I hope you don't light up those stinky cigars inside restaurants or other buildings. ;-) |
