that started in the middle of last summer here in New York State. Some smaller places won't make the cut, and will lose too much money to remain in operation. Others will allow people to smoke, but will have cups filled halfway with water to put out their cigarettes, since ashtrays won't be allowed.
Club/bar owners will bitch, and think they will have the power to change things, but they won't get very far, however, they may find loopholes in the law, which might allow pre-existing cigar bars, etc., to allow smoking, or something like that.
More places will open outdoor patios for people to smoke, and people will be out there until october/november when they can't feel their fingers anymore.
Imagine how packed the Skybar is going to be during the mid-october season finale (instead of Labour of Love) when it's frigid up there... |
or they could just install electric heaters covered by a tent or wooden roof (that's what they did in London in many places and it's actually warmer outside than it is inside). Why can't they just designate certain rooms to be smoking? At the Guv, it could be that room you use to get to the skybar or the VIP room in the Guvernment? If they don't install heaters, people shouldn't have to freeze their asses off outside once every hour or two. |

good riddance!
Aside from the second hand smoke, which is obviously the main issue, twice recently I've been burned by some fuctard not paying attention while they push their way through the dancefloor :mad:
and yes...the pot can stay ;) |

I'm careful with my smokes...I've only ever burned myself.:D
But second hand smoke from a joint is just as bad, if not worse, than a cigarette. the filters on ciggies do a good job you know.
I realise you're just joking, but you can't be anti-cigarette but pro-marijauna...that's totally hypocritical. |

The Liberals were going to ban it within 3 years anyway so Toronto decided to jump the gun and ban it themselves without being ordered to do so. (typical power struggle politics)
What I don't like is the increase in tobacco taxes...it's just going to create smuggling problems again. In fact, I'm already hitting up some Native people for 4 dollar ciggy packs.:D |

| Weed was never allowed in clubs, so the only difference in that respect is that it will be much more obvious when you smoke a J. |
