A Hookah for Our Trouble

Sometimes I have a hard time naming the posts. Today is one of those occasions. So many topics are rolled up in today's edition.

I could have simply called it "Tenant Gone Missing II". This post is largely about our missing tenant who just up and left all our stuff. See: ?Tenant Gone Missing. We cleaned out his unit today.

Either "High Class Livin'" or "One More Place Forbidden to the Dogs" would have served nicely. Out of this deal we did get a lovely floral print couch. Now we are prepared to receive guests. I am a bit concerned that the location of the couch is far too close to the window. I don't want our prize to have faded upholstery.

We netted a whole collection of creepy dolls. "Attack of the Creepy Dolls". But they aren't attacking. and plus I'd rather not talk about them any more than I have to.

I do like "How Small Is Butte?". We have this really neat hierarchical master key system. Part of that is some padlocks that work with our master Schlage door keys. One of them went missing a few months back. How small is Butte? So small that we found the lock in a drawer in our missing tenant's house. That's how small.

I went with "A Hookah for Our Trouble". Well because somehow it sums up the whole event. Despite all the stuff in this guy's place one of the very few eBay-able items is a water bong.

NOTE A: Yes I am aware that a hookah is more like one of those four hose opium jobs one used to see in old cartoons. But if it matters to you then I'd like to float the notion that you spend too much time thinking about drug paraphernalia.

NOTE B: A special holla' to all you law enforcement types. In so far as I'm aware this bong is a legitimate tobacco consumption device and will be sold for that purpose only. In contrast the odd little glass pipe made from a light bulb and a sharpie will be disposed of. Sigh: If only I could find a way to harness the creative energies of drug users and focus it on something not lame.

NOTE C: I know what "two" means; I know that "too" is a synonym for also and can also be used to suggest degree. e.g.: "too much". I know that "to" is used to suggest "towards a destination" (e.g.:"to the store", "driven to distraction"), suggests extent (e.g.: "The road stretched from here to the mountains."), and is used in tandem with verbs (e.g.: "to have", "to make", "to smell", "to be"). My question is: Do I say "any more than I have to", because its short for "have to do"?

Note A: Hookahs are generally single (3 at most) hosed water pipes. Having so many as 3 or 4 hoses would mean 3 or 4 valves. Also, their would be matters of keeping the thing sealed while anyone smoked it.

Note B: Hookahs are used primarily for Shisha or flavored molasses tobacco and using it for such things as marijuana or opium will eventually destroy your hookah's body. Why? the resin from the drug is pulled through as the coal is sometimes, but the resin sticks to the sides of the pipe and cannot be washed out therefore building up until your hookah is completely ruined.

Note C: A hookah is not drug paraphernalia! Shisha is delicious and you should try it
