A Smoker's Lament

A Smoker's Lament
 At my fitness center, the back row of stationary bikes had ash trays clamped to the handle bars; you could work off the corpulence and enjoy a good smoke at the same time.
 Then someone cried havoc and unleashed the dogs of war on us smokers.Smoking was even banned at beaches, for Pete's sake.
Beaches?Did you ever hear of a careless smoker accidentally burning down a beach?


I really liked this,so much of it was true.
But it was also sort of humorous,I can't figure out why the author did that,if I had the opportunity to speak out about bans I'd be venting my spleen.
