No, I’m no talking about the “Stop, Look, Listen (To Your Heart)” which was a popular hit for Philly soul group The Stylistics in 1971.

Stop. Look. Listen. These three words illustrate the whole scheme of life. You don’t agree with me?

let’s take a simple scenario:

You see a pretty girl; you stop, you look..you marry here..
Then for the rest of your life, you listen!

Do you want to share your experience and your point of view with us?

I came across the word hookah and this sounded like something I read or heard long back. Where did I hear that name?
The Hookah-Smoking Caterpillar from Alice in Wonderland. (See the pic below)

As you can see, the catapillar is holding a device - that’s the hooka

Definition

=> A device (in the form of a large water pipe) used for smoking substances like herbal fruits. These tobacco mixtures, referred as argreelay in arabic, comes in all kind of flavors and smells really good.
Hookah pipes, also known as shisha (Hookah Shisha) or narghile, is believed to originate from the Middle Eastern and South Asian continents. It is often used as a social after-meal activity (shared among several people) or by one people (solo hookah).

Is there any risk?

=> As any tobacco-based substances, smokers are surely exposed to risks stemming from nicotine, tar and carbon monoxide

I will end by saying a cliche (like “the cigar is just for looks” by John Chow)

I don’t smoke and neither should you. If you do smoke, then I recommend you make a New Year’s resolution to quit.

Relax, I’m not talking about the common meaning of idiot being “a stupid person“. Surprisingly enough, idiot stemming from its original family of words has another meaning.

Idiot comes from the greek words:

So, if you do not hold any public office, you are most likely an idiot!

I would also take this opportunity to make a retrospective of Wakish Wonderz for the past year 2007:

February 2007 - How Wakish Wonderz Started It’s Path

Back in February 16 2007, I stepped in the ocean of blogging. At that time, I had really no aim, apart from having an online presence and to share some of my experiences once in a while. You will understand what I mean just by a quick glance off my Old About Me Page.

But then as time passed by, I realised that blogging was within my reach and might actually suit my aims on the net (I love to be on the net and indulging in something creative). I started my way slowly, full of uncertainties. In the period February 2007 to July 2007, I was using a Free Hosting service - while this free service helped me a lot in my learning experiences and to have my own blog at $0 cost, I actually experienced a lot of trouble with frequent site downtime and other problems; free host means limited features and a lot of patience.

August 2007 - A New Page

But in July, I experienced a severe blow. My website was freezed (actually erased) on that Free Host which decided to become premium. Since I was not really satisfied with their service, I was reluctant to try to invest in their premium service. My website was gone for like 3 weeks during which I took time thinking about Wakish Wonderz’s future. Finally, in August 2007, I decided Wakish Wonderz should keep going and I opted for a new quality dedicated hosting service. Wakish Wonderz was back! Since then, my motivation for blogging increased. I chosed to blog only when I felt I had something to share and when I felt I could write good informative contents. With just a few quality articles, my blog was promoted to PR3. My inspiration raised even more. I tried my best to blog, but it was not easy since I was also doing my BSc course.

October 2007 - The unexpected PR4 Promotion

At the end of october 2007, my blog was promoted to PR4. This was a surprising news for me and needless to say, this gave birth to a Blogging Eruption At Wakish Wonderz.

December 2007 - Exams halted my blogging trend

But in december 2007, I hardly blogged with only 8 articles. You might have thought I was too excited and slept a bit? No , this was because december was marked by my exams which expanded in a 3 weeks’ time. So obviously, that had an impact on my blogging trend. Dear fans of Wakish Wonderz, I apologize for my absence in december though!

What’s Up For Wakish For New Year 2008 ?

Well, my aims for Wakish Wonderz this new year 2008 are:

1) Increase & maintain my readers and viewers to at least 500 unique visits per day.
2) Increase my technorati rank as much as I can. A ranking of Top 150,000 will be a realistic target.
3) Code a new custom theme/design
4) Earn at least $3K till the end of 2008

I have a lot of hard work lying before me and coupled with real life objectives; where there is a will, there is a way!

I would like say my “sincere thank you” to all of you readers, viewers, friends, sponsors and fans who played an important role in promoting Wakish Wonderz to a Google PR4 status and to where it stands. I hope this new year 2008 will bring even more positive trends and surprises and I will successfully meet my objectives.

Sincere Regards and Best Wishes,
- Wakish -
