water pipe first time he came to Qatar several years ago...brought it back on the plane with him cause it didn't want it damaged. Had to unwrap it each time he went through customs here, London and Houston because no one, except here, knew what it was! Got it home and showed my youngest son, who at the time was 17...who immediately said..dad, what you doing with a giant bong??? We used to sit on the front porch back home (small town with a narrow minded attitude) and smoke the pipe and people would walk by slowly staring at us all. I'm surprised someone didn't call the police on us.
