i personally love hookah bars, and the hookah itself in general. i hadnt been there in a LONG time or smoked one until last night.

we've got 3 here in the area that i know of. two are middle eastern, serving middle eastern food along with hookah. the other one that i usually go to, and love, is a "new age" place with velvet couches and such and some cool indie music. they charge a $2 cover and then its $8 per bowl. last night 6 of us smoked and we only went through one.

i wouldnt say that this stuff is addicting in the least. there was a time when i would go over to a friends house and smoke every night, but that lasted for a week or two and then i just got tired of it. i dont know if you can get tired of smoking something that's supposed to be addicting. we smoked it because it was something social to do while we kicked back and watched a movie or tv. after that week or two, i didnt smoke for months, and had no real overwhelming desire to.

i've got a friend who smokes cigarrettes, and he really doesnt like smoking a hookah at all. he says that the nicotine and harshness thats in cigarettes isnt in the hookah, so therefore isnt worth smoking. go figure.

i must say that i HATE the smell, taste, and pretty much anything associated with cigarettes. but the hookah is different. the smoke is thinner and doesnt linger in the air. its not harsh and because its flavored, it actually tastes good.

i did think that it was better for you than cigarrettes though

thats my two cents.
