Dr Laura's son dropped out of Hillsboro U & is selling hookahs

Ex-student set to open hookah bar in Hillsdale

By Dave Frank

The first experience most students probably had with a hookah was watching the caterpillar swarthily blow smoke vowels from one in Disney's Alice in Wonderland.

Former student Deryk Schlessinger will try to make that experience a bit more personal by opening Hillsdale's first hookah bar. The bar is scheduled to open soon after Spring Break in downtown Hillsdale near the old Democratic Party offices.

"We're trying to bring the Middle Eastern culture to Hillsdale," Schlessinger said, from an easy chair beside a 5-foot gold-plated hookah in his Park Place apartment. "Even though that sounds like a big task, we think we can do it through hookahs, a couple tapestries and a fountain."

1. Good for him!

[Hobarticus]

2. Writes its own punchline, doesn't it? n/t

3. He best not intrude into Snoop Doggy Dogg's territory.

They'll lay the smackdown on him.

4. Hillsdale is that right-wing doctrinaire school

that takes no federal money, so it doesn't have to follow federal anti-discrimination guidelines.

Not surprising 'Dr.' Laura's kid ends up there. Maybe a good sign he dropped out.

8. Wasn't that where the President was having an affair with his daughter-in-

law and was determined to have committed "suicide" with a --get this---shot gun? I remember they hushed up the scandal that left people wondering if the son hadn't killed his father or if the woman hadn't killed him. I believe this is the RW school that the Cheney's and others support so much.

9. Yeah , forgot about that. More family values from the RepuKKKes

12. I remember Geraldo (when he was on MSNBC or CNN) doing a story on this

but only once. Never any follow up and the story disappeared from the print media over night. But shooting yourself with a shotgun in a Gazebo is a really fishy story. Why not shoot yourself with a handgun in your home? I think that is how the story went. I be you won't be able to find it on the Net...bet it has been scrubbed.

5. I'd be a pothead if that was my mom too.

Can you imagine that shrew wrapping her bony arms around you, calling you "bunchkin" and giving you "advice" in that self-righteous, bullying tone of hers on a daily basis?

6. I once had a hookah

Got it at the Green Stamp place in Tampa, 1971. Think it was 2 books?

7. This is very funny

She has done such a good job of raising this boy. She had relationship with her mom and now her son is rejecting her views. There is a G-D.

13. You wanna see her nudie pictures too ...

... that were taken by the man she was cheating on her husband with ?????? There is a nice "beaver eagle" pic thats TOTALLY worth it ;-)

10. I actually own a hookah!

It's in my living room near my harmonium and my miniature sitar.

Mine, however, is not a five-foot, gold-plated one.

11. He's not selling hookahs

From what they tell me, patrons at a hookah bar purchase a charge of flavored tobacco and smoke it in one of the hookahs on the premises. These establishments may sell hookahs, but retail sales of hardware is not their primary business.

You of course know "hookah" is Arabic for "bong."
