Saw it. Perhaps it is an old picture they used from training camp?

OMG....

After reading your post, I feel like I've been kicked in the balls. My stomach hurts...

Anyone remember the joke Greg Giraldi told about her P%$^#Y drying up on the Roast of Pam Anderson?

T, you need to add the final episode to the collection and the season will be complete.... "Jacked-up by the Jets"...

Like the movie Groundhog Day, except this sux much, much worse...

But I think thier point is, if it is voted in now, it would still be here when we don't need it...

JP I presume...

The little woman got me a MP3 player with 2Gb storage, and a radio tuner. I love it!

Cowboys fans are like roaches, they are everywhere....

To be fair, I could do without having to breathe cigarette smoke in public as well. But as you both have so forcefully pointed out, it SHOULD be a consideration issue for people to obey smoking laws, and it definitely SHOULD not be the governments responsibility to regulate smoking laws in private establishments like restuarants and bars. You may not agree, but I don't think the government should have to pass common sense laws like wearing your seatbelt, and wearing a helmet to operate a motorcycle. And, perhaps I was a bit melodramatic with my statement, but I certainly don't find it laughable to use Orwellian concepts to describe this particular situation. Because I do pay attention to current events, and most of what I hear coming from the lawyers these days is pretty scary stuff...

I'm not sure, as in, I don't have empirical proof, but I would be willing to bet that actually spitting on another person would be considered assault and would be dealt with as seriously as physically striking someone. Not to mention the biohazard issue...

This is where the problem is. In our new wave, lawyer driven society, it's all about personal rights, and the good of others be damned. I totally agree with your position though... My point is that if you let government take away a right such as smoking in your house, it opens the door to getting rid of other unhealthy behavior. Before you know it, were all doing pushups in front of the Telescreens with the man imploring you to "give me five more Comrade". Then we can go to the two minutes hate to shout curses upon TD...

Reminds me of a comedian who once said something to the effect of: each person should be able to legally kill one person in thier lifetime. People would be extremely nice to each other, since they wouldn't know if they still had thier one freebee to use...

What you say may be true, but the same can be said for fast food, or alcohol, or just about everything if you want to split hairs about it. People usually don't notice reductions in freedoms until it's too late. Cinc pretty much hit the nail on the head. THe governments, both Federal and State, make so much money off cigarette sales, it's ridiculous for them to do anything serious to challenge it. Take for example, the RICO trial they just lost. The feds tried to say that Big Tobacco profited illegally from cigarette sales, and sued for 200billion or some nonsense. Oh, by the way, they didn't happen to make it spend alot of time talking about the fact that they made boatloads of cash in taxes for the years they claim money was made illegally. THe states have no grounds to cry about rising health costs due to smoking. They raked in over 200 billion from the major tobacco companies in 1998 (one article of the Master's Settlement Agreement of 1998) among other things...

That would be a nice Christmas present...

Or bad news perhaps....

Yup, the one I believe most responsible...

I wouldn't get out of bed for 25,000 a year....
