Anyway I am kinda confused as to how this bong cooling idea works. Bascially as you were explaining it to a child tell me how it works, how it's setup, and the theory behind it? Thanks very much in advance.

For water to evaporate it needs energy (heat), that heat comes from the water left behind which becomes cooler as a result.
A good evaporative cooler will expose as much surface area of water to as much airflow as possible, you
want to evapoate the water, any schemes to try and re-claim the evaporated water in any practical/efficient manner are doomed to failure.
