Lizzie Johnson reports on
an "alternative" to cigarette
smoking, the Hookah. My
generation used it for an
entirely different reason.
From the POV of RTS, this
is ALL about cool, the
hipster thing- it isn't
particularly healthy to
smoke, as a single drag
from a hookah doses the
user with an unfiltered blast
of smoke, tar and nicotine,
albeit cooled down, that is
many times the strength
and volume of that of a
puff from a cigarette...
I'm aware that young adults
probably don't want to listen
to what RTS has to say...
but nightly hookah indulgence
is similar to smoking packs
of unfiltered cigarettes...
or don't believe it... it's
probably the worst way to
take in tobacco, from the
standpoint of your lungs...
btw...to the "ex-smoker" in
the article who said "this is
kind of cheating"- news for
you- if you're smoking a hookah-
you are NOT an ex-smoker.
YOU ARE A SMOKER.
Tell us all about the safety
of Shisha...
Good luck on this habit....
...of course, if you're the
Caterpillar, none of this matters...
