Fat chance we'd see a No Drinking Day.

Ted Kennedy would do his best to stop that one.

Didn't they used to have a Great Smokout Day in November? Whatever happened to that?

(Non-smokers) have this 'holier-than-thou' attitude. Reformed smokers are the worst," another said.

Well, I only quit 4 months ago so I guess I haven't had time to develope the "holier than thou" attitude. In all honesty I doubt that I ever will. No one in my family smokes now but if you come to visit me friends, I still have ash trays and burn 'em if you've got 'em!

There's generally nothing wrong with discouraging bad habits which harm people and their loved ones. If people want to have a National Non-Smoking Day that is certainly their right. On the other hand, if someone wants to assume all risks for their chosen behaviors they should and do have that right, too.

"Second- and first-hand smoke are killing people," he said, and "banning smoking is a challenge to this Government."

The lie about second-hand smoke continues. Here in California, I just heard a taxpayer funded ad on the radio spreading the same lie about second-hand smoke killing people.

"On Friday in the House of Assembly, Shadow Health Minister Michael Dunkley said: "We need to do something more progressive with Bermuda about banning smoking."

I'm shocked I tell ya', a "Minister" using the word "progressive". What country is this in?
