    hookah is just flavored tobacco, smoked through a big asspipe (hookah) with a group of people. Sounds like a lot of fun!

    We've got a bar here in london that serves hookahs alongwith the drinks, and plays wacky moroccan music. As american as I am, its a hell of a great time. The smoke is extremely light, much lighter than any cigarette; Ive had no problem running the morning after a night there.

    If this chick is smoking the same hookah P and I are referring to, then I wouldnt worry too much. But growing up, we used the hookahs for pot, and thats a bit of a different topic altogether.

    Tried it, not a fan. Makes me feel like I'm in India or something.

    A hookah full of opium, hashish? Sounds like fun.
    Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
    not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
    and drag down the features of age,
    no folds or creases from unkempt wear
    eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
    no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
    but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

    i still think it's stupid. unless it's hashish, pot or opium what is the sense of it? just to smoke something? smoking blanks is as useless as virgin drinks.

    well i kinda do care. life is full of health risks and i'd prefer it if people not make it any harder for themselves. drugs in the smoke might make it more understandable but any smoke in your body is really not doing it any favors. and who the hell knows what new bird flu or whatever is around the corner. if people will listen to you ask them to seriously consider the risks.

    you must be new here...

    but how does smoking a hookah once a month or so at a bar relate to draining the economy? i pay to do it, a pay for my drinks at the bar... so I would be contributing to the economy.

    and if youre argument is that ill rely on the health care system to pull me out of my hookah induced lung cancer, then youre way, way off base.

    I can't imagine smoking anything is inherently "good" for you. I'm not one to judge though. I enjoy an occasional cigar once in a while.
