I'm Glad I'm on the Downhill Side of This Life

Sure, lets ban cars too, how many innocent people do they kill every year? I bet that would save a lot of healthcare dollars too. Just think how healthy people would be if they had to walk or bike everywhere. Goodbye obiesity

Noise OTOH, I would like to have an RPG for those cars with the booming bass that vibrates through other people's cars. Those rude SOBs ought to be shot. :gwh:

Sure ..... I'm a perfect example to illustrate the point you made. :)

Gentlemen,

As for understanding life, in every respect, whether Democrat, Republican, Independent or Pedestrian, smoker or non-smoker, drinker or non-drinker, happy or sad, skinny or rotund, womanizer or a monk, straight razor user or Mack 3 ozone commando — allow me to offer the wise words of the eccentric French composer Eric Satie, also known as the Velvet Gentleman:

Monsieur Satie said: "When I was young, people used to say to me wait until you're fifty, you'll see. I am fifty. I still haven't seen anything."

Well, gentlemen, I am beyond 50. I am still waiting.

Regards,
Obie

Dunno - maybe? I'm my own person - just because you changed your mind about something at 50 years of age doesn't mean that I will

I guess in the context of this thread, some people (Jimmy) are going to smoke no matter how senseless it is ;)
