I was never into such things, but one of my sons went down that track. His bong was a plastic coke bottle with a bit of rubber hose in it. Every time I found one, I threw it out. Until he left home. Then I bought a new garden hose.

We are almost the longest ones here in the neighborhood. The previous neighbors next to us had a father who just never grew up (my opinion). He would party with his teenage kids like he was a teenager. Maybe he wanted to be "cool" for his kids? Anyone they finally left and the new owners found a bong hidden in the house. Maybe it has happened often?Bill Lislemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15187273560129198423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1920860526738969165.post-57601570906133976872014-06-12T21:17:43.233-04:002014-06-12T21:17:43.233-04:00BEST.

Thank you for telling all of us this story--for letting all of us have a glimpse into the kind of thinking and even desperation that shows up during divorce.

I had no idea they were bongs and pipes because I had never smoked before or been around it. I found a pretty little pipe that was yellow and white and it was only 5 dollars. I was so excited I bought it and took it home. Imagine the look on my kids and husband's face when I showed off this beauty! I got lectured about buying from that store and things were explained to me a little clearer. I just thought it was prett. :)Life happenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04426557368853696930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1920860526738969165.post-45240329811395837902014-06-12T17:05:12.884-04:002014-06-12T17:05:12.884-04:00There is bong shop in a local town..I had to expl...There is bong shop in a local town..I had to explain to a friend what they were...the youngsters around us thought it hysterical.<br />Jane xJane and Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08102086552682194819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1920860526738969165.post-73889061969255364752014-06-12T16:54:16.441-04:002014-06-12T16:54:16.441-04:00Very few (none) of the bongs I saw were works of a...Very few (none) of the bongs I saw were works of art.
