Hookah Magic

Well it was the night before memorial day and brent, alaine, manthan, and i headed to mariano's. Of course mariano's was closed and so was reed's. So we threw our own shin dig at the house. Kind of hard to entertain three other people on the fly but i busted out drinks and music first, can't really go wrong with that unless you play horrible music.

i then brought out the hookah, since manthan and brent were there i divided out the tasks. manthan packed the bowl while brent got water and i pretty much assembled everything. For some crazy entertainment i whipped up some bubble solution. i read some where that Dawn is the best soap to use but i can't be Ultra. But everything seems to be Ultra on the shelves these days. So i went ahead and used Palmolive. Another crazy thing to add to bubble solutions to make them stronger is glycerin. i spent like a day looking for glycerin and its impossible to find. All i could find at the pharmacy and food stores were glycerin suppositories...yeah, not really going to help me. i heard the next best thing is light corn syrup, but there is none of that in this house either so i just used a little bit of dark corn syrup.

For a bubble ring thingie i got a card board toilet roll. It worked pretty well. Something about bubbles and smoke, really entertaining. Just look at manthan's face. It's like he's seeing the coolest thing in the world.
i was pretty much the bubble machine that night.
i even caught a couple. You feel pretty cool when you have a bubble in your hand, especially when there is smoke in it. Its like i had my very own Rasengan...okay, maybe i geeked out a little too much there. C'mon, it kind of looks like a ball of concentrated chakra right?
