There is no air here

My eyes are watery and it's hard to breathe with all the bonfires people have going in their back yards. Since the yuppies have moved back in to the city, and OBVIOUSLY need to burn wood fires in their back yards, this is the price that people asthma, allergies, and medical conditions pay. Even with our windows shut up, our lungs get assaulted IN OUR OWN HOMES with smoke that is actually more carcinogenic than tobacco smoke. But hey, as long as the city makes $25.00 for every backyard fire pit permit they sell, I guess it's all worth it.
