He comes from money on his mothers side I thought.

I will agree with this, we have smoking bans in restaurants in NY and NJ, and as a smoker I appreciate it, cigs and food never mix.

But bars, in my drinking days I loved a shot and beer chaser, and a good smoke as I let the alcohol settle.

Bars in NYC lost alot of money, because within 6 months, there would be alot of people on the sidewalk out front these bars, then the police start hassling you, basically making you leave or put out your smoke and go back in the bar.

Mostly because your smoke bothers some fake coughing tourist that actually stopped staring up at the tall buildings and bumping into people to complain about ciggy smoke.

I blame tourists, and Bloomys dream of turning this into some kind of cheap Carribean Island tourist resort, at the detriment of the happyness of the people.

Point of a smoking ban in bars and restaurants is so that the staff don't have long-term health problems because of where they work.


That's the long and short of it.

Dana Reeves, wife of Superman, Christopher Reeves, who never smoked, but worked in lounges singing all her life where heavy smoking took place.

Dead of Lung cancer, and a saint of a woman. I see your point.

(NRA news, just FYI.)

I find it hard to believe the man who made salt on French fries and 16 oz soft drinks illegal in his state would think its time to throw away the constitution

Yet he did neither of those things, though its easy to believe that you believe he did.
