The legislation would have allowed smoking in enclosed outdoor structures at bars in Baltimore County. The bill failed in a 10-8 vote on Thursday. The bill was sponsored by Delegate Joseph Minnick, who co-owns a tavern in Dundalk. He says his tavern and others have lost business since the statewide smoking ban began Feb. 1. The bill was approved earlier this week by a Senate committee, but Sen. Norman Stone says he expects it will now be shelved." You know ... I really don't care if they ban smoking in restaurants, but bars are a different matter. No one goes to a bar to be HEALTHY. People go to bars to relax, have fun, and tie one on if the occasion warrants. People don't want to have the health police looking over their shoulders when they're at their favorite bars. If I want to go someplace to be HEALTHY, I'll go to a yoga studio, thank you very much. BREAKING NEWS:

You know … I really don’t care if they ban smoking in restaurants, but bars are a different matter. No one goes to a bar to be HEALTHY.
