Subject: Smoking at Work and Eating Out

I could probably get away with an occasional pipe on the job, but I
don't bother.  I haven't smoked at work for six years or so
and don't miss it.  Since this is balmy Northern California,
I do occasionally nip out to the courtyard with some reading material
and a pipe or cigar.  There's no phone, nobody grouses, and I learn something
or plan something.  This would be less satisfactory, I think, in
Minnesota in January or Houston in August.

I also usually choose to eat in no-smoking sections.
Eating good food, smoking good tobacco, riding my bicycle, and 
having sex are all great pleasures, but some of them don't mix.
Food and tobacco seem to cancel each other's pleasures out.

Smoking between courses is barbaric.
I've never even tried sex on a bicycle.
