Smoke This

I understand that people smoke, I really do.  I have been fortunate enough to visit Europe and the whole place is basically on fire.  I was also very fortunate to see Roma play Firenza in a match in the Olympic Stadium in Rome and from the upper seats you truly had trouble seeing the field and the play through the smoke ring around the stadium from the 110,000 people smoking, but these are situations I chose to be in.

I would prefer to not smoke the cigarette of the person driving the car in front of me because that person wants to smoke, either because it is cool, or because they have an oral fixation, or because this is a substitute for food, but does not want the smoke in HIS or HER car.

If you are going to smoke while driving please close your windows and fill up your own car with smoke, not our streets and our country.  If you are going to smoke while driving please put the cigarette out in the palm of your hand and then put it in your pocket, do not just throw it out the window while still burning.

I cannot tell you the number of times, and I know I am not alone, where the light you are sitting at is long enough that by the time it turns green I feel as though I have just had a cigarette, without the sex, and then smell of smoke when I get where I am going.
