I imagine, though, that the risk factor of each would highly depend on frequency of use. Smoking a pack each day would likely carry a much higher risk of cancer than smoking from a hookah once a month or less.
EDIT: I don't think my friend will join, I just met him and I think it'd be weird to say something like "HAY I SPEND MOST OF MY DAY ON TEH INTERWEBS COME JOIN ME!"
We had our first hookah experience today. It was fun! It's a very social thing, passing around the hose to all involved. I would recommend it to people looking for something fun to do.
I SUCCESSfully passed my third semester in college with high grades. I've got an average of 9.1/10, but I can still raise that if I take some extra exams for improving your grade. I swear I' becoming more of a nerd every passing day, it's like I'm addicted to seeing perfect 10s in my grade reports.
So, I'm finishing up my third week of teaching tomorrow, which means Unit 1 is at an end. I'm very happy that it's over, because I think that Unit 1 was a bit unstructured and didn't lend itself well to learning outside of the writing project.
BUT! I have finished planning out the daily schedule for Unit 2 (about 3 weeks), and my confidence is restored. I feel like I now have something concrete to teach them that will stay with them for the rest of their learning careers. I WILL be a rockin' teacher! I just need more time to practice than I initially thought.

On a related note, Megan and I bought an experimental hookah! We might try it out tonight. Megan says that hookah is absolutely delicious.

So for now... we're just friends in person.

So... yay?
They need to play the "Catch them by night, Convict them by day" angle more with the superhero attourney thing.
