I'll never forget getting harangued by some Chinese woman for lighting up a cigar in an open-air public park, on the 4th of July.

Great article! I don't smoke except for a "ladylike" cigar on my birthday. Twenty more days 'til I light up for the year; think I'll do it outside Mayor Dave's office in Madistan, LOL!

But the more the 'Smoke Gnatzies' pester adults who are partaking in a LEGAL and TAXED substance, I'll always side with the smokers. Always.

Besides, nine times out of ten they're a lot more FUN and actually ENJOY life versus the "No Smoking Anywhere Ever" zealots. ;)

NANNY STATE PING.............

Control FREAKS is right on the money..........these people are out of hand and if anyone thinks they are going to stop with tobacco they have their head in the sand (or in some other dark space)

Martin, for all the good stuff you do I hate to bust your chops, but that's the Gloucester, Massachusetts paper.

Later today I'll have a couple of glasses of a fine Cabernet before a big charbroiled Porterhouse steak dinner, during which I'll have a few more glasses, finishing with an A. Fuente Don Carlos Doble Robusto, a caffeine-laden double espresso and maybe a Sambuca. All the while flying and toasting Old Glory. I can only hope that some of that fine Dominican smoke and my increasingly boisterous salutations waft over my tightassed liberal neighbors....

I found it very interesting that as I visited a grocery store during a recent trip to California, that the tobacco products were double locked in a glass case, while the booze was freely available to anyone walking down the grocery isle.
