I work at the local Ren Faire, have since 1995. A few years ago they added a hookah tent...I like the hookah tent a lot. I shared a hookah with a friend this weekend (partly to get rid of a leech that won't leave him alone, but that's another story), and it wasn't bad! Still sweet, smooth and yummy. :) Is it horrible of me to smoke a hookah every so often?

I wouldnt think so?? but i dunno wth is in a hookah??? lmao.. anything in moderation shouldnt be bad!!


Usually you put some sweet flavored tobacco in hooka's. I used to like raspberry :)

I don't think it's terrible, Lilith. I've never seen someone just get addicted to smoking tobacco out of a hookah. It's sort of a once in a while thing for anybody. It's when you decide you need a cigarette for in between those 'once in a while's that it becomes a bad thing

of course not! A hookah is actually the "analog" to an ecig!

You are inhaling glycern, honey, molasses and flavoring and some nicotine delivered through the tobacco substrate. Unlike other water pipes and "herbs" being smoked, you never let the shisha burn, ever. No tobacco is ever incinerated (if done right) in modern style hookahs. The tobacco is merely a substrate for the liquid. The expended material in the bowl at the end of a session should be brown dried tobacco and have the consistency of a freshed baked brownie. Many misconceptions exist about hookah smoking. Think of the hookah as the 17th century e-cig.
