FLASHBACK:

"Suit over secondhand smoke targets real estate broker" by Jonathan Saltzman, Globe Staff | February 9, 2010

One of the first lawsuits of its kind to go to trial in Massachusetts....

What is with our stirring-up-trouble state, 'eh, Massachusetts? Why do we have to be first in fascism and same-sex marriage and last in everything else?

It could encourage similar litigation and open a new front in the battle over secondhand smoke....

Just what this nation needs: MORE DIVISION!

Sigh!

Oh, sorry to exhale my smoke in your face, s***ter.

Think of it as her gift to the country, readers.

Then to a brief?


"Trial to open in secondhand smoke case

Lawyers for a Boston woman and the real estate broker whom she sued over secondhand smoke wafting into her South End condominium are scheduled to deliver opening statements today as the trial starts in Suffolk Superior Court.

I got something else wafting over your way, lady!

I'm sure you would rather the pot smoke.


Attorneys for Alyssa Burrage, a 32-year-old advertising company employee with a history of asthma, and for Joseph DeAngelo, a broker for Gibson Sotheby’s International Realty, are expected to address the jury about 9 a.m. (AP)."

PFFFFFFFFFFT!!


Ah, I can breathe again.

Turn your head and cough, please, Glob.
