[ravi]

Alright.....i bought a new hookah in new york city the other day and asked if i could test it out...He said sure and got it all ready. while we were smoking it, he was going on with these stories about things he does to his sisha that makes it taste better. Two of the things that really stuck out to me were, he said he sticks lettice in his bowl with the shisha, or drips lime on the shisha. I never really thought about it when he said it, so i didnt ask him about it. Has anyone ever yeard of this??

here is a group of highly unscientific reports of using wild lettuce as
an intoxicant.  from reading through a couple of these, i'd say
that a cold alkaloid extraction yields the most usable product when
condensed into a tar.  this tar could be mixed with ma'assel and
possibly used to very interesting effect.

if anyone has tried this, let us know please...

i myself would love to try it, but i have no idea where to get wild
lettuce, and I'm NOT ordering it off the internet - too likely to get
something that's complete bunk.  maybe at the local co-op?
