If you support Obama, it's still a bad idea to hope that the weakest candidate gets nominated to oppose him. If it were Obama vs Santorum (which it won't be), Obama could still lose, say if Israel bombs Iran and gas prices go to $8. |

I used to live above a pizza place and a kosher bakery, and I wouldn't want to do either again. I still support the legality of pizza and baked goods.Of course you did. You're half Italian half Jewish and wanted to be close to the ethnic foods dearest to you. Would you mind if you wife patronized those two businesses? |

Living above a restaurant produces consrant food smells. Porn shops do not.It wasn't the smells that were troublesome, it was the customers coming in and out, and in the case of the pizza joint, hanging around outside. |

Having seen bar clientele and having seen porn shop clientele (about 3 blocks away, long closed), I prefer porn shop.Porn shop clientele are very discreet. They definitely are not out to attract attention. Bar clientele can make an awful lot of noise, especially at 4 AM. But as I said, I don't want either next door. |

That is probably true, but if you had to live in let's say an apartment above stores, it's safe to say you rather be above a florist shop than a porn store. That's the point (don't bring up nonsensical sewage treatment plants or slaughter houses, as those aren't the same sort of retail/service businesses as a hair stylist, florist, or a porn shop. Those would be industrial, and not able to come into retail locations. |
