Yeah, actually, THC is fat permeable, which means anything you cook with that has lipid cells in it (fat cells) such as lard, or oily type things like butter can absorb the THC from the leaf itself, or from a concentrated oil.
While I'm not a fan of smoking cigarettes and such, after having smoked pot and cigars, I'm more open to it. I'll admit that it isn't good for you, and it does damage your lungs, and cigars and cigarettes are bad for your health, if you aren't a heavy smoker, the effects won't be so bad.
Oh, and I never got addicted to pot either. I've never had a problem with getting addicted to it, for some reason. I may want to smoke it more often after I've smoked up, simply because I like being high, but I don't consider that an addiction because it's completely controllable, and it's only mental. I prefer to use the medical definition of addiction: A substance which your body has become used to and dependent on it's presence for normal operation.
Oh, and has anyone here done a popper (There are other names, but that's what we call them here). That's when you don't use a bowl, you use the slide itself, and you back some tobacco under the pot to hold it up so that you can smoke all the pot, and then breathe in hard enough to pull the tobacco through and into the bong. For some reason they get me really high really quickly, and tend to last less. (Though I've never been able to pull the tobacco through, because by the time I've burned the pot, my lungs are full.)
