News & Booze Friday Edition: Will We Allow Smoking on the Suicide Barrier?
Chris Daly's attempt to further ban smoking may be gasping for air because - hey - we've already banned smoking everyplace we could do it easily.
Also, he didn't say "pretty please." He never does.
But a mayoral panel did say the suicide barriers proposed for the Golden Gate Bridge aren't pretty enough. Is that outrageous or accurate?
How about this: if you want to kill yourself in this city, you're allowed to go on the Golden Gate Bridge and smoke. Will that satisfy everyone?
Joe Eskenazi and Melissa Griffin are in the studio drinking with the microphones on.
(All that, plus a very special message from the Gavin Newsom for Governor Campaign.) --Benjamin Wachs
