Soooo anyway.... Salvia never used to work for me either. Its important that you keep the flame on it the whole time, its not like pot where the cherry is good enough to burn it, has to have direct flame on it the whole time you inhale. When you do inhale, pace yourself. Goal is to get as much as you can and still be able to hold it in as others have mentioned. If you dont do it right on your first and second hit, then it aint going to do anything no matter how much you smoke. If you do it right on your first hit, you'll know by the time you're trying to take your second.
Dont be mad Hikaru, not all guys are mature by 19. hell im 26 and im still a jackass from time to time.
I'm not mad, it's kind of funny, really. :H Just in an annoying way. And everyone can be a jackass, but as long as you keep yourself in balance, there's no problem with it.
