Seriously I think we should encourage smoking as well as other dangerous behaviour. Otherwise life would be stagnant and boring. #tractortrailers

On that topic, I'll likely have some footage of a wicked stunt to post in a couple weeks!
Shh, don't tell my government. There's probably a ticket for even thinking about it. #tractortrailers

in construction i have to routinely remind workers that they cannot smoke in their dump trucks, in excavators, and even inside the building under construction.
the jist of the law is that if there is a enclosed rooftop and two walls - smoking is prohibited.
for patio's in the summer if two umbrellas are touching you can't smoke in that area as it is technically enclosed
hell i almost got in major crap for smoking on our office porch - we decided it was best to remove the trellis surround on one of the sides to avoid the two wall rule #tractortrailers

Either way, this is a load of BS. #tractortrailers

I don't smoke, friends who stop by during the day do and will still be free to smoke.
Customers who want to smoke, can. Those that don't smoke will not be surprised I have no issue with smokers. The smokers, they will kindly put them out when non-smokers arrive.
We pay the damn taxes on this building, We pay the mortgage on it. It is my families. If it is after hours and a few friends want to have a smoke and shot the bull, they will. Whats next? Are they going to tell me I can't have Beer in the fridge at my work place? I can't read Jalopnik at the work place?
Write me the ticket, I'm sure a lawyer some where will take it pro-bono to piss off the nanny-state of Wisco. #tractortrailers

Notably, even people staunchly opposed to smoking are in an uproar over this. Rightly so. #tractortrailers

What's a loonies? #tractortrailers

@mr_dude: "Loonie" is the slang term for a one dollar Canadian coin. It has a loon on the tail side. #tractortrailers

So that's why all the rappers talk about dropping Independence Halls. #tractortrailers

Same thing with Tijuana for San Diego collegiates, as you might imagine.
Wonder which has dirtier strippers. #tractortrailers

Does Detroit refer to the Canadian Ballet, or is that just a Buffalo thing? #tractortrailers

I suppose if you have to pick a fight, Canada is a good choice. You know the old saying, "Just like bringing a Canadian to a gun fight."

And then the next morning you wake up, and you're spooning naked with an extremely large bearded trucker named Jethro, with no recollection of the night before, and you hurt in places that you didn't know you had places.
