I wish I could be that free here in the U.S. but alas freedom isn't tolerated much these days.<br /><br />You say, "Smoking is not prohibited in privately owned buildings."<br /><br />I remember what that was like when that was permitted here in the U.S., all this seems so strange to me, you in Japan being more free than me here in the U.S. in those ways, that isn't the way the masters of the universe present things to be.<br /><br />The way things are over there,... You are oh so right, That's the way it's supposed to be.<br /><br />I miss freedom and liberty, maybe someday it will all come back to the U.S. of A.?<br /><br />Maybe tomarrow I will buy myself a bit of freedom and liberty? I'll drive my car without wearing my seatbelt ($50 fine) over to the bar and I will light up a cigarette in the bar ($50 fine) and then get kicked out (or tasered or jailed) then if I can I walk home with an open container ($100 fine plus jail,... and maybe a tasering or a beating) there goes all my extra money... wow, that's what I used to think life was like in a backwards communist African country or the Soviet Union... not-so-funny-that.<br /><br />Also, I try to eat or drink some fruit after drinking and I don't get a hangover. YMMV.<br /><br />- Please pardon my rant, I couldn't help it, things are not right here and most People seem to be ok with that, that's why I drink at home,... but it's not much fun.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
