Blowing Smoke
May 11th, 2007I recently told a friend (who said he appreciated the new smoking bans because he usually doesn’t go to places that allow smoking): “If it’s worth going to without smoke, it’s worth going to with smoke,” and I’m a guy who thinks smoking is a disgusting habit. I just don’t believe that it should limit where you go or what kind of rating your movie gets. I don’t believe that cigarrette smoke should be banned in Chicago plays that call for the actors to smoke. I can’t believe someone is absurd enough to propose these ideas, that someone else is absurd enough to pass them and that another someone is absurd enough to enforce them.
On another note: Pity to poor Paul Wolfowitz. Haven’t you heard? In a week, he’ll have to find himself a rich girlfriend to do for him what he did for his. Just don’t cost her her job, Paul.
