Rendell to sign smoking ban on Friday the 13th

It's high noon for Pennsylvania smokers on Friday the 13th.

Gov. Ed Rendell plans to sign Senate Bill 246, Pennsylvania's Clean Indoor Air Act, at noon on Friday at The Ambler Theater in Ambler, Montgomery County.

That's in the home district of state Sen. Stewart Greenleaf, who was instrumental in getting the smoking ban passed.

The ban will take effect 90 days after Rendell adds his signature, so start smoking more over the summer. By fall, smokers will be hunted down as criminals, facing fines and jail time if they light up in the wrong place.

For directions and parking information, visit www.amblertheater.org

I dare you to go to the ceremony and light up while Rendell is signing the bill.
