SMOKERS...Get a Damn Clue!!!

Why do you think more and more establishments are posting NO SMOKING signs? Eh?

If you want to toast your lungs, that's OK by me. They're your lungs, your life, your emphysema. But leave my lungs alone!!

I was in the checkout line at the grocery a little while ago. The entry door slid open, and I was all of a sudden gasping for breath.

Yeah, there was a smoker standing outside the door. Well, yes, he was outside. That's the law in California. But his smoke was filtering back inside the store, through the door that was admitting customers every few seconds.

Some places have signs that request smokers to stand at least 20 feet away from the building.

Good thing I had my rescue inhaler with me. Otherwise, I'd be in an ambulance right now getting an inhalation therapy treatment, and possibly even heading for the hospital.

Listen, guys, asthma is a serious health problem. And there are people who are just simply annoyed or irritated by having to inhale someone else's smoke. So please be considerate. Move away from the doorways.

Even better...quit smoking. It's in your best interest.

Yes, I know the addictive qualities of tobacco. And yes, I understand how hard it is to kick an addiction. But there's help. Go get it!
