1. Smoke in a confined area like a closet or a small car. While farting in someone else's confined area is called "Dutch Oven," this one's called Jamaican Cloud. It's heveanly.

2. Unless you're passing it around attentively, cover the bowl and put out the ember. This will save you some salad.

3. Lick your teeth. Hey, I know it sounds wierd, but it's all about THC absorbtion. Those little guys are hangin' out in the nooks and crannies of your mouth, and don't want to be left out.

4. Recycle exhalation. This is quite personal. Instead of letting it all go, exhale lip to lip into someone else's lungs. I call it counterculture romance.

5. Fog the floor. This technique takes some practice. Take a good strong three-quarter hit, leaving some lung space. Tighten your lips to a fine hole and keep inhaling slowly but so that the air coming in is cool. When you can't breath in anymore, hold it for a few seconds, then exhale slowly. If you did it correctly, the smoke was cooled and it's now sitting in the bottom of your lungs. You should exhale almost no smoke. Now hang on to something.

6. Cook it hot! Using the same small lip hole, pull furiously and use the tip of the flame to burn it at a much higher temperature. These always taste worse, but even bourbon's consumed for effect not taste. Bong's work best for this because they keep the snacks off your tongue. Yealch.

7. Set a limit on daily intake. Wacko! I know! But honestly, if you need to burn and burn and burn all day, you need to check into Betty Ford anyway.

8. One hitters. I don't completely understand this one, but I'm told that one hitters use the least, while joints waste. I don't completely believe it either. You'll have to tell me what you think.

9. Take daily vitamins. This is very theoretical, but vitamins will make you healthier, hence, they should reduce your tolerance to THC.

10. Share. Sessions with friends or strangers will many times be reciprocated. Also, sharing is what the whole experience is about.
