Is It Possible You Could Put That Out?

Dear Gentlemen,
What is a nice way to tell someone that their cigarette smoke is bothering you?
I'll be sitting at a blackjack table, where smoking is allowed, and a guy or gal will have smoke floating over to me.  It is legal for them to smoke but it is right in my face.

What is a polite way to ask for them to put it out?
Mr. S, KC



Dear Mr. S.,
When a gentleman is in a den of vice, where smoking is permitted, he ought to roll with the punches.

In that situation, a lady may complain, and a gentleman may take up her cause. But unless he is a severe asthmatic, he should be able to handle a little second-hand smoke while he plays cards.

The second part of the word gentleman is, after all, man.
Good Luck,
The Gentlemen
