Mpls Passes Smoking Ban

[Goat Blower]

It's great. I'd love to be able to go to Applebees and eat without it smelling like an old ashtray. It'd also be nice to be at a bar and not breathe that either, but most bars I go to don't have many smokers anyways. The problem with smoking is that it affects everyone around them, so there are a lot of good reasons against it in public buildings. If you want to kill yourself and devalue your property, do it in your car or house.

Also, read farther down in the article, St. Paul's mayor says he'd approve the ban for St. Paul now. They'll probably follow suit around the same time, next spring.
