So my favorite little dinner near campus closed down last semester and was recently replaced by this place called Hookah's.
I know that a lot of people frequent it for the belly dancers, but, until the feature ran on Fox last night, I thought the name was just some marketing concept.

celia, when you first told me about the name change and belly dancers, I assumed that there was a little more than belly dancing going on, if you catch my meaning (my meaning is that I thought it was some sort of brothel).

The article is right, though. These things are huge in the MidEast. My former arabic teacher said they bring out a hookah in most Jordanian resturaunts for people to share instead of an appetizer.

quote: The Caterpillar and Alice looked at each other for some time in silence: at last the Caterpillar took the hookah out of its mouth, and addressed her in a languid, sleepy voice.
`Who are YOU?' said the Caterpillar.
This was not an encouraging opening for a conversation. Alice replied, rather shyly, `I--I hardly know, sir, just at present-- at least I know who I WAS when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then.'
`What do you mean by that?' said the Caterpillar sternly. `Explain yourself!'
`I can't explain MYSELF, I'm afraid, sir' said Alice, `because I'm not myself, you see.'
