Second Hand Smoke to Pets

How  about ”second-hand pet dander dandruff”? see below 

 Fusillo the Egyptian

Obviously the second hand smoke  experiments were done on animals first.I can’t see it being done on babies! A straycat who comes around seems scared of the clouds spewing out of my mouth. Dangerous? My puppy doesn’t mind, but maybe he doesn’t inhale. But morally ourselves we have decided to smoke and not all  around us. My wife had me smoking on the porch until I moved my p.c. into a small private room!!

Second hand pet dader and dog farts, fleas, etc.

So I say, if they ruin my air, I don’t need a guilt trip about the hookah. Doggie can play outside.

shisha experiment.

I use a big,big bowl that smokes 2 hours minimum.”Party Bowl”.50-65 grams. Nowhere does it say I have to smoke it all at once, and sometimes I’ll do  1,2,3 smokes depending.If I have left over its dry but smokes perfectly. I just squeezed fresh lemon juice on some added a bit more coal and its terrific.

I’m continually suprised as I see more on “Hookah Domain” forum

I joined the “Hookah Domain” forum last week and I am daily astounded at how much is on there, and I realize that I haven’t even scratched the surface.

http://www.hookahdomain.com/

There are many members with their own hookah vieos,slideshows and a large well photographed album of thousands of photos.

Here again is the link and I took a very small sampling of the photos to show, just to give you an  idea.

The Hookah Domain forum is also a very friendly place to comment and exchange notes.

One of the harder working members is flumoxed

Great slide show from Jake@Hookah Domain forum

This is only a taste of Hookah Domain Forum’s great, fantastic hookah forum. Its independent and a “member’s forum” free to join. Its user-friendly and so beautiful to look at.

Its link :

The member list keeps rising to 831 at this moment.

Lots of really GOOD DIY videos and hookah videos in general, slide shows as each member wants, photos, music.

Quite a revolution in hookah  forums with an international membership (myself in that catagory) but I see from Russia, Latvia, Germany,Italy and I haven’t see all the members profiles yet.

True hookah story that happened 3 minutes ago!

I’m smoking some good  strawberry-banana shisha that I bought store made in Jerusalem,Israel last week.I have a plastic mouthpiece tip on the hookah hose  

 since its metal and not to my taste when now only four minutes ago, I felt something near my lips and mustache. I took a look and here is what I saw comming out of the mouthtip……..

 

  yes, its the “season of the witch,” I mean pinch.    Pincher insect we call it “scissor insect”. I quickly tossed it of before it cut into my lip or would have got  it into my long beard!

I see in english they are named”earwigs”.

 I’m going to find something for them.They get in and out of the faucets and drains. I think they are related to feline cats.Try and catch these guys, they know how to move slow and hide. Not so big as a cockroach though.

My P.C. is Smoking Hookah too!!!

 

I work from home on my P.C. after teaching young children for 24 wonderful years.(My defence attorny said it was time to quit or 15 years hard labour so I got off lucky).I  bought a new P.C.  4 months ago after my last one very old would no longer  even start. I also bought a battery supply  since our electicity goes off for nano seconds often in my village.A real cutie, and it keeps me warm at night.

But I was getting complete, abrupt shutdowns, no slow go like this UPS system is supposed to do. This started happening 1,2,3, 4 times a day more and more. After I broke their technical department’s heads trying to figure it out, I turned to my phone company  for internet service,  my server and finally Microsoft                 

 Even Bill told me he didn’t have any idea what was going on. I called my brother who lives nearby and he said, “take  the back off your p.c. where the fan is and carefully vacumn  out”.

 

 But its only 4 months old, I said. I’d forgotten what the climate is like here. We are 4 brothers living here between Hebron and Bethleham, not far from the Dead sea desert area and lower Jordan valley. After one day of open windows the dust is quite thick.

So why am I telling you all this on a hookah forum?I wanted to see what was in the vacuumn cannister after I vacumned the  p.c. fan.By the way, I did not risk taking the back off since it was built in 2 interlocking layers.The fan was 1/4 of an inch to the surface anyways.

 

Well, my p.c. started working well with no shut downs. In the vacumn cannister was about 1/7 pollen, 2/7  fine desert dust and 4/7 “soot of the loom” i.e. hookah emmissions in black hues.I use a great quick lighting coal that barely  gives off smoke and next to no  acrid smells like some of them tend to do, but I smoke around 7,8 bowls a day right near my p.c.

so it’s all my own fault. I cleaned the p.c. fan 2 and a half weeks ago, right in the heat of cleaning and preperations for the week long “Passover” holiday of Pesach, but its  shutting down again  twice a day, so I better get the vacumn.

                 soot particle magnified                                              

 

So if anyone tells you that the hookah is dangerous, remind them of walking on the sidewalk in a large city’s pollution, trains, the home fireplace, airports,sewage pipes,laundry detergent,air….

your favourite local Hookah Lounge is…?

Here is a chance for you to register, and write in about your favourite hookah lounge anywhere in this vast world we live in. Here in  Israel they are mostly hundreds of Arab tea houses that serve the narghila with hundreds of years experience.

We have a small few in Tel-Aviv  and we are a tiny country, but in the North american continent are many! Also Europe,Asia, Middle East, Kankeekee,Wakiki, Timbuktu and in Kalamazoo.
