They just did the same thing yesterday in Idaho, but under the guise of a "restaurant" smoking ban. However, if a bar serves up a ten-year old bag of pretzels or a pickled egg, the bar will pretty much fall within the definition of a restaurant.

It's pretty unbelievable legislation to me. Where are you, tobacco lobby? Is it possible that I might come to miss the halcyon days of Jesse Helms and Strom Thurmond?


i just noticed this, Bradley.

hilarious, as they say.

I used to be a hardcore smoker- a pack and a half of Marlboro Mediums a day. I sporadically indulge when no one is looking these days, but I have no desire to ever pick up the pack and half addiction I once had ever again. A butt here or there is innocuous, but smoking habitually on a daily basis is nasty and unhealthy.

once in a long while- not crap
daily- crap

do you really start feeling better a day after you quit?

i've heard yes and no, but i am in no position to succumb to testing the theory myself.

explain you guniea pigs....


I think it depends on how hooked you are and your metabolism, among other things. For me, I literally stopped the habit one day in the summer of 2000 and said to myself "I quit", though like I said I've smoked a cigarette here and there since. I don't recall feeling "withdrawal" at all- perhaps the metabolic factor? I dunno. What I know is that you just have to make a firm decision to quit if indeed you want to quit.
