Here in Tallahassee (roughly 200,000 people), we have only a single Krispy Kreme and the two Dunkin Donuts places closed. I preferred Dunkin and will not eat Krispy kreme. |

For a long time it seemed I had some kind of jinx that every doughnut store I went in was staffed by the 'differently abled.' And I was kicking myself for missing out on the Krispy Kreme's stock IPO. It's since tanked, of course. DSK |

They were selling empty air. ANYONE can make donuts that are yummy when they are fresh and warm. KK's had the additional distinction of being sickening once they cooled down! Plus, they enhanced their business model by selling what was probably the world's worst coffee. |

They have a coffe shop (people smoke) where they store their doughnuts (uncovered). They have since gone out of business, too late for the state law banning smoking in places that serve food to have an effect on my eating habits. |

They have since gone out of business, too late for the state law banning smoking in places that serve food to have an effect on my eating habits. Fortunately in Maryland most restaurants have banned smoking. One diner we visit up in Annapolis has a smoking section, but it literally is behind glass doors that seal tightly. We have a nice Italian restaurant in our area that used to allow smokers in one section, but the owner listened to complaints, shut down the smoking section and then re-decorated it to get rid of the stench. There's nothing worse than trying to enjoy a meal and encountering the stench created by smokers and their filthy habit. Talk about tyranny of the minority. ~~ sheesh ~~ Oddly, I feel the same way about loud, obnoxious drunks in restaurants. I think we ought to ban the sales of alcohol in all restaurants. Think of the lives that would save. It would help rid the world of drinkers and their brain addling, liver killing, drunken driving addiction. You need a DA who'll charge people with murder instead of vehicular homicide or whatever 2nd rate crime they throw at drunks. In the end, the murder charge won't stick, but it scares the bejeezus out of the drunk, and they'll end up pleading to something slightly less, and still do LOTS of time. It worked nicely on a woman near here, who killed two people when she got onto a dark highway going the wrong way. She's doing 20-something years. After the trial, jury members said they were fascinated by the DA's premise because the defendant claimed to watch x amount of TV each week, for a certain number of years, she was exposed to more than enough public service ads about DWI. With this in mind, he said he fully intended to kill when she put the keys in the ignition. One juror was iffy about it, so rather than risk letting the bitch walk, the plea bargain happened. |

Smoking HAS to be the nastiest habit there is. I agree with you about drunk people, to an extent. But, not all people who drink, or even all who are drunk, are obnoxious. All smokers, however, stink up the whole place with their filthy habit. |

And I don't see why you call it "tyranny" that non-smokers don't want to be given lung cancer & emphysema for the sake of your nicotine addiction. Not to mention that the employees of places that allow smoking can be exposed to several packs worth a day. Oddly, I feel the same way about loud, obnoxious drunks in restaurants. Or loud obnoxious drunks anywhere. IMHO people who get obnoxiously drunk should be pushed face down in a ditch, shot, and left there as an example to others. Probably wouldn't take long to solve this societal problem. I think we ought to ban the sales of alcohol in all restaurants. Just to be safe let's ban everything! DSK |

I enjoy a glass or 2 of wine with my meal when eating out, as does my wife. Sometime I have a couple of beers instead, depending on the meal. Your attitude on this is "I don't drink and no one else should!" You are also basing your opinion on the actions of a few yet imposing your restriction on everyone. And as you know, it will never happen. Think of the lives that would save. It would help rid the world of drinkers and their brain addling, liver killing, drunken driving addiction. -- "What the hell's the deal with this newsgroup... is there a computer terminal in the day room of some looney bin somewhere?"
