styx491 Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 http://www.collegiatetimes.com/stories/2007/09/28/hookah_not_so_healthy_after_all The VT school newspaper did this story, and as a very avid hookah smoker it took me by surprise. I was always told by people I trusted that smoking a hookah is not as bad for you as a cigarette is. Obviously I should have done my own research and found out my own facts before I assumed things, but back on point, what do you all think.? I have had my hookah for almost 13 months now, and we, my friends and I , smoke it about 3 times a week, usually in groups of at least 5 or more. Sometimes drunkards come stumbling back on weekends late and they join our group. I use mouth tips for everyone who smokes and clean them out after every session. I know it's addicting, my friends and I have had cravings before, but I don't know if the 20 grams of shisha = 15 cigarettes is accurate... Thoughts from the hookha shisha connoisseurs.

twa Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Sorry, I've smoked a lot of different things but never a hookah. Bang is right, but that ain't slowing me down till I cough up a lung. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosemary & Vanilla! When in Jacksonville one of my favortie restraunts is a hookah lounge called the casbah. If you are ever in the area for some great food hit it up. I was thinking about ordering one off ebay. How's it working for you? Where did you get yours? Where do you buy the supplies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsHokieFan Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 I have hookah maybe once or twice a month That spot in Blacksburg is real nice, I wish it opened up before the spring of my senior year Regardless, I wouldn't worry, you don't have to deal with all the other crap in hookah that you do with cigs And with anything, moderation is key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 I've done it once before with a girl I was with. It was interesting but I haven't had any urges to do it again. Not that I won't, I just don't have the compulsion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
