Only two months after smoking areas were erected at two hospitals, the desire to go smoke-free on the premises will eliminate the smoking rooms entirely and replace them with smoking shelters.

NHS Lothian (Scottland) will eliminate smoking rooms at Royal Edinburgh as well as at Astley Ainslie. The will then provide smoking shelters in it's phased shut down of the indoor smoking areas. The Health Board claims the action will assist smokers in quitting.

The Health Board states, "These shelters will act as a platform to promote our stop smoking services, to encourage people to seek help to give up smoking from one of our dedicated smoking cessation nurses."

3. I've had some smoking erections in my day

Been a while though. Now I smoke after the erection.
Seriously though, I've built some smoking "enclosures" at the taxpayers expense on the base here, just so our overpaid civil servants could spend half the day outside smoking.

4. Funny, but that is the headline the newspaper used.

What I find interesting is poster Rippin's signature lines:

Beware Obama's Reichstag fire.

I thought the American Reichstag was 9-11.

14. On the positive side, they're going to Scotland to find things to complain about.

Good grief! Besides, most hospitals in the U.S. absolutely do NOT allow smoking on their property.

Maybe it means they can't find anything about Obama to complain about. Good.
