Hookah pipes popular with teens

Salvia has alot of different varieties and good uses too - making it even more unfortunate that it is being outlawed in many places.

Sad that a cure for Alzheimer's might be derailed or lost because morons found yet another way to get high.

I did not know that salvia was illegal
Dangitall, I learn a lot in rain storms!

I guess my age is showing. I just don't get the hookah thing.

It must be a generation gap. Maybe like how I can't understand why daughter won't use an umbrella when it is raining heavily or won't wear a coat on really cold days because she says it's not cool? Today the rain in Georgia from Ida was intense, but I didn't see one student with an umbrella. Not a brains thing -- even my high SAT students had no umbrella today.
