I landed in Burbank on Thursday and the stewardess said on the overhead "please refrain from smoking until you are in a designated smoking area". I silently wondered to myself if the designated area she referred to was Nevada.

The right to smoke doesn't exist and employers have the right to hire or not to hire anyone in my book. I love tobacco, btw, and enjoy a good Romeo and Julieta maduro reserve from time to time.

There is no right to eat beef
There is no right to drink alcohol
There is no right to consume sugar
There is no right to laugh at a joke
There is no right to play baseball
There is no right to sleep in the afternoon

Get it yet??????

So, where willit end?

I suppose that firearm owners have higher health costs also? Care to have everyone turn in their guns?

Rock climbers have higher healthcare costs. Get rid of them.

Oh, and how people vote has adirect result on the financial health of a company. Want to work here? Vote my way.

This crap has got to end. Time to write the President and CEO of Scotts and tell them why I will refuse to purchase any of their products.

Do they sponsor any sports? Because I will write to anyone who supports Scotts.

Oh, as full disclosure: Lifetime non-smoker whose father died of lung cancer. I am against this since what an employee doesin his/her off time is not the employers business unless that activity compromises one's ability to do the job.
