Stew Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Sounds like a plan to me... Specifically saying no hookahs *BAH* "Eat burning coal dickwad!!" Just kidding... but do try to get dem some learnin on da hookah (I appologize for that line) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molson Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 hmmm i dunno if being angry and aggressive would work as it may come across the wrong way. id do it more in a professional manner and ask politly to speak to whoever is in charge. arange a meeting and simply explain it, also say that you would be smoking it outside away from buildings (even if you dont) and that it is much better then cigaretts etc.... thats just my way as i find your able to become friendly and their more likely to negotiate. BUT that dosn't mean my way is better then any other and they both have been proven to have results....in the end its your choice and if you pick the "louder" way, then it can still have a more positive outcome.

jmexx Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 ^^^ You're SOOOOOO Canadian! Haha. The reason why they probably did that was because of the papers saying how smoking a hookah once is like smoking 20 cigs. It was difficult for me to explain that to my dad but it was a fun debate we had. Good luck and happy smoking.Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahwahoo2006 Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 No, they probably did it because: a) people do use hookahs for smoking other unmentionables besides ma'asell they look very much like devices used for smoking said unmentionables c) they are a huge fire hazard d) they DESTROY the carpet in dorm rooms That being said, it doesnt mean they should be banned. I keep rolling papers for rolling my own cigarettes, and those could definately be considered drug paraphanelia. I was only semi-serious about the lawsuit, that should be more of a last resort. There are plenty of other more productive ways. If you are really interested Linzz, PM me and I will tell you about some of the options you have.

John Deere Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Can you smoke it outside? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahwahoo2006 Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 She could JD, but the problem is that if they see a hookah in a dorm room, being smoked or not, its considered drug paraphanelia. That being said, they obviously arent going to search rooms, so maybe just hiding it and being really discrete and using it outside away from prying eyes is the way to go. Even though you shouldnt have to go to such lengths. *sigh* I hate admin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yashman19 Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Let me just tell you that next to none campuses will allow smoking of any form inside dorm building. Its a disaster waiting to happen... I was under the impression that you knew this, and all my tips were intended to allow you to smoke in your room without getting caught. I haven't heard one person who goes to a college that allows smoking in their dorm... Sorry Hookahs have also been banned from my campus from what I hear from people around my campus..doesn't stop me though. As for people acusing you of owning "drug paraphanalia", just tell them that ANYTHING can be considered drug paraphanalia... I have stoner friends that can make a pipe out of a pen, or an apple, anything.. Good luck with whatever you decide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Deere Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Well I have an interesting story to tell......... I just got done smoking 2 heads (1 double apple and one reg. apple) with 5 of the RA's, the Sr. RA, AND THE HALL DIRECTOR. Originally, we were all going to watch a movie, untill they spotted the hookah in my room. It was the funniest thing ever. It was a good time, and now I dont have to worry about getting hastled. I'm in shock still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
