Buying a bowl

Just to keep this post on topic I would like to start out by saying I am planning my next trip on my last day of school in about 2 and half weeks.. that's going to be a fucking good one. Anyways I am about to purchase a bowl online and I am really having trouble deciding which one to get. I have owned 3 bowls and a bong in my time so I have experience with various types of materials... I am looking to stay away from glass because I get very clumbsy while smoking and have shattered a bowl before.. I liked my metal bowl but after smoking out of it for a few months it got really clogged and hard to breath through. Right now I am looking at this http://shop.grasscity.com/shop/grasscity/0121.html I have never used an aluminum so I was wondering what you people think about it. Also while I was searching this site I came across this http://shop.grasscity.com/shop/grasscity...se=Shrooms.html I am kind of skeptical about buying shrooms over the internet. Does anyone think this is legit? Thanks for any feedback.

Hey thanks for the responses.. Yea I know glass is the best. Like I said before though I am probably going to break it. No matter how hard I try to keep it in tact, I gaurentee something is going to happen. Metal is my 3rd choice.. noone has said anything about aluminum yet? Anyone ever use an aluminum pipe? If so please tell me what you thought of it.

Aluminum is supposed to give you cancer!
Then again, so does everything else. What you should aim for is a color changing glass pipe, they're pretty durable and look hella nice.

Ewww!!!!!!!!!
Don't smoke out of a metal pipe man. That's at least twice as nasty as smoking resin. They taste like shit. At local headshops you can get a decent (if small) glass bowl for $12-20. That's really not that much money, even if you get clumsy and break it before it can get too much mileage.
If you're dead set against a glass pipe, I guess I'd recommend trying a wood one, but stay away from those metal pieces. They're fucking evil and foul-tasting.

My squaw went into a local headshop last week and asked to see their pot pipes.
They couldn't sell her one because she said "pot".
She's a blonde so I guess she couldn't help it.

glass is infinatly better than metal. but if you want a metal one, i guess that one would work ok. and they probably won't ship the shrooms to where you live.

Yeah dude what Entropymancer said just get a cheap glass one and just be carefull with it, a Good thing to do when you toke is sit down cross leg'ed and that way if you do drop it it wont have to far of a drop to go and might not brake.
and defintaly dont smoke outta metal or aluminum you will find that after you smoke out of a aluminum pipe your throat kinda itches because its coated with a fine coat of aluminum, plus it dose taste like shit, I remeber my buddy when he was like 12 used to smoke buds out of the pepsi can pipe's <--- (dont do that)

Go for wood if you don't want glass. My friend carves them out of branches and they look wicked. He just coats them with some lacquer afterwards and they work beautifully.

Dude if you like you metal one just clean it out with Alchohal
Soak it for a day then by the next day it will be like new, maybe get
some sort of brush that will fit in your pipe and clean it out a
little more too, you can always clean a pipe..Even better than a wood
pipe and even better than glass pipe I say, a sweet Soap stone pipe,
nothing beats it man you can even carve your own pretty easily

get a vaporizer! it'll cost you a bit more but they are worth it and you can save the leftovers for cooking.
better for the lungs by far.

A light bulb one is good too. Using such a ghetto device is an art though. It takes a bunch of experience to master control of estimating how much thc is left, how to keep it at a good steady temperature, how to knock out thc by adding kinetic energy, how to stop occaional flash fires, etc... But then it's all you really need in terms of vapes!

I say buy a glass bowl with a shotgun of your liking at your local head shop, it will deffinently be cheaper than off the internet.
