		<description>Your friend had cabbages on his bicycle? Oh, wait...I see now.

Even as a smoker, I do sympathise. The trick -- for the smokers -- is to flick the burning end off the cigarette (on its own it pretty much disappears in a few seconds) and then discard the remainder of the fag in the bin.  You could perhaps put a sign up.  With pictures.</description>

		<description>Oooooh! Those are handy. A friend of mine used to have one on his bicycle. Pretty much had the road to himself after the first blast.</description>

		<description>Cabbages.

Thats your solution.

Since you can easily dump water on the nastiness, you could as easily dump cabbages. May 8 or 10 really ripe cabbages.
Too putrid and mushy to kick or to pick up.
Put them down where the smokers stand. Even if they stupidly push them through the holes, their delicate fragrance will continue to delight all who stop there to rest and filter smoke.

Repeat.</description>

		<description>I think I would go that extra step o&#039; nuts and stick a camera on the oblivious smokers. And I have a battery amplified bullhorn. With a siren... I probably shouldn&#039;t have it, and I shouldn&#039;t say why... but on a small street in a Wisconsin city, I reckon the parishioners still think twice about blocking what used to be my driveway.</description>

		<description>Hah! 

Kimberly -

I think I&#039;d go mad learning the Dvorak layout - more likely to get one of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.frogpad.com/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;these&lt;/a&gt;!

As to whether that was inappropriate, I&#039;m trying to come up with some appropriate punishment for your general salaciousness, but in the context they all sound &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;really&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt; inappropriate :)

		<description>get busy doing this --&gt;
http://www.applemacbook.com/mods/macbooks-qwerty-keyboard-converted-to-dvorak

maybe the project will calm you. 

Or, buy a firefighter&#039;s outfit. It&#039;ll protect you as you put out fires and bonus! Mrs H might think it sexy and reward you for saving her laundry and her life.

(I REALLY hope that wasn&#039;t inappropriate.)</description>
