Hey everybody,

This is not oud related, but I just wanted you guys to check out my new sheesha! Woo Hoo! Anybody in the SoCal area is more than welcome to come hang out, play some oud, and smoke some grape or double apple with me.

Take care,
Mike

Nice samsonite Shisha Mike!!!

Smoke it in good health ... ;)

I can see you also have two classic Ma3asselat

I love al Fakher tabaco. and Nakhla Toufahtain is always a safe bet.

I will post some pics of mine too.

First, this is oud related ;)
And why do u have to live all the way in Cali????

mabrouk habibi, that looks like a good smoke- where did you get that? My uncle here in San Francisco sells the cheaper ones, but you know how frustrating a lousy argilah is!

That is indeed a beauty!

I saw something like that in germany being sold for about 90 Eurs. I wish there is somebody who pays me to study. hahahah

I have some sets but then again they are a far cry as compared to yours

Here you see my sheesha corner in my student room. they are all inferior to yours.

hakeem.ram - 3-28-2006 at 03:29 PM

Here is another one of my favourites

Mike - 3-28-2006 at 07:27 PM

Thanks guys. I got that locally here in one of the Middle Eastern grocery stores. They also sell sheeshas and me`assel and all other accesories. Here are a couple of other shots of this bad boy! Hakeem, I like your olla sheesha. Looks very authentic.

Here's my other sheesha that probably won't get a lot of love anymore. I'm gonna miss this sheesha. :(

Mike - 3-28-2006 at 08:02 PM

Ok...last sheesha picture for me. I promise. :airguitar:

Anybody else like the Ma3alem stick on a the small arguileh

Mike - 3-29-2006 at 08:41 AM

Nice sheeshas Samir and Samir!

Don't worry Bill...I'm not an everyday smoker...too much of a hassle. Don't smoke cigarettes either. This is just something we do when we get together and play poker or are just hanging out in the patio.

Okay Dubai244...next thread will be pictures of cute bellydancers!

SamirCanada - 3-29-2006 at 09:53 AM

This is definetly worth watching and you will not be disapointed you did.
First class lebanese belly dancing.

Wow! I wish to have a wife who can do that for me. Well I am indeed goign to be the Shah of the house anyway ;)

Nonetheless to all the smokers, do you smoke directly the flavoured tobacco or do you have a special mix of a few types for yourself. Personally I prefer a mix of min+rose or a mix of mint+jasmine. smells good and leaves a cooling effect on your throat at the same time.

dubai244 - 3-29-2006 at 08:18 PM

Hi guys,
I guess we should hang-around together one day, each one of us should get his oud, shisha and girl friend and play poker.
wow .... what the life?!
ok ... hakeem, personaly i love Grap, nice smells and flavour. And i do same thing with mint, mix it other flavour. Friend of mine, cuts an apple or banana and put it in the Shisha with the shisha-water. he said it gives speacial light tast ...... try it ..

SamirCanada, thanks for the belly dance clips, i love them ..... :applause::D:))

SamirCanada - 10-30-2006 at 09:13 PM
