Smoke On The Water
Today's front page news story, (which should give you an idea of how slow things were yesterday in CT), is that one of our largest employers, Electric Boat, is going ban all tobacco product use by its employees within a year. Ordinarily, I'd hav no problem with this; I don't smoke, I don't like smelling like cigarettes, and the allure chewing tobacco has somehow escaped me. But I can't help thinking that if I were in the Navy, and I was on one of the fine submarines that EB builds, I would want to know that it had been put together by someone who's hands weren't shaking from nicotine/tobacco withdrawal.
Apparently the newspaper isn't the only one having a slow day.

GONZO!
I did not put Pud up to that, I swear.
But seriously, that comment is so appropriate to all situations.
Um, now, how are they going to do that? What about those who don't smoke at work but still smoke at home?
I'm so confused...
I'd want smokers building it, along with big tattoos of ships and subs on their forearms...
Leave it to limpy to see the very very practical side! LOL!
nicotine withdrawal rarely made me shake, but it does make me swear like a sailor ;)
Hmmm...the patch seems like a wonderful option.
