My favorite bong recipe is this:
INGREDIENTS:
1 honey dew melon
1 cup of Midori melon liquor
some candle wax
2 Bic pens or equivalent
some duct tape (quack!)
1 pipe bowl
1 screen
a small carving knife or equivalent
lighter or matches
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Cut a hole in the melon slightly larger than fist-sized (keep this "lid")
2. Reach in and scoop out any seeds and weird bits.
3. Drain half the juice
4. Pour the Midori in the hole
5. Carve a hole the width of a Bic pen in the melon 90degrees from where you carved the big hole
6. Remove excess parts from pen until you just have the tube
7. Stick the pen tube in this new hole and seal with wax (this will be your breathing hole so don't place the pen into the water mixture inside: just push it far enough to clear the melon skin)
8. Carve a hole the width of a Bic pen in the melon "lid" you removed in step 1
9. Remove excess parts from pen #2 until you have just the tube
10. Attach pipe bowl to the second pen using duct tape (quack!)
11. Place new screen into bowl
12. Stick pen/bowl contraption into the small hole within the melon "lid" (push it far enough to go into water mixture inside: this will provide proper suction)
13. Place melon "lid" back on big hole you carved in step 1
14. Seal this with wax
15. Pack bowl with your juiciest nugs
16. Smoke and enjoy!
HANDLING:
a. If the wax starts to crack, just seal again with a lighter/matches
b. After each use, keep refrigerated
c. This bong will stay "fresh" for a week (do not use after 7 days or you're asking for it)
d. When 7 days is up, remove all bong bits and cut the melon into slices (don't drink the juice!!!)
e. Since THC (the active ingredient in marijuana) is alcohol-soluble, some of the THC will have seeped into the alcohol bong water which will then have seeped into the melon. If you eat a slice, you will get hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh. Enjoy!

I'm beyond late coming into this thread, but does anybody have any real strong feelings about Build's work? I respect Michael he is a strong character and I know people who know him, but when it's all said and done and you leave that out the door, what is the nitty gritty of his work? Does he proclaim the life of print (in the REAL sense of the word) in the digital day? Is it purely formal experiments of typography? Is it layout? Is it ink application? I know it's all of these, but my point is....what is it? Really question what it IS you're seeing. There seems to be a big circus everytime he creates a piece of work, and they are beautiful pieces of design in nearly all cases, but they seem to speak mostly to people within the graphic design community pretty much exclusively. There's nothing wrong with this, but what IS dangerous is the media frenzy that surrounds this work....many students look at this and see it as the pinnacle and the work that makes the difference, when all it does it keep the fun within the design world, never really outside it. Where is the meat and substance to that? Does anyone have a point about that? For me , that's the one thing that pricks away....it's beautifully crafted, but that's all it is....and we seem to see it for more than that? yes/no?
