(DENVER) Well
legal pot has been here for over two months
Guess
what?
The
sky has not fallen yet
I
don't think.....
Our
dusty old cow town seems just the same to me
Haven't
seen any crazed pot heads running around creating anarchy
Course
I don't get out much
Nevertheless
I have been doing diligent research on behalf of my employers
UCTMW
Took
a little break to visit our Russian friends in Sochi
And
held up in Vegas for a few days to let Mick cool down about some bills I ran up
in Russia
But
I
have been researching !!!!
So
here is my take
LEGAL
POT RULES!!!!!!!!!!!
All
the peeps you meet in the stores are so friendly and cool
Everybody
is smiling
Course
the people running the stores are happy
They
are getting fucking rich!
But
all the customers are laughing and joking
I
frequent a store near DU
A
local University
The
customers range from college kids to the retired crowd with plenty of very rich
folks thrown in too
And
they all talk and socialize together
Very
very cool actually......
Now
for the products
Course
you have your garden variety bud
Sold
by the gram $25
1/8
ounce $60 and so on and so forth
They
sell sativa an "upper buzz"
Indiga
a "sleepy buzz"
And
a hybrid of the two.... for you independent's out there who can't decide
which party to vote for
I
guess
Then
there are the "edibles"
These range from pills
to candy of all sorts
Gummy
bears, totsie roles, gum, chocolates, hard candies, basically anything
And
then you have your brownies, cookies, fudges, protein bars, granola bars, fiber
bars
See
you can get high and be regular
So
there Jamie Lee Curtis!
Very
interesting are the drinks
They
come in resealable bottles
Soft
drinks, sports drinks, fruit drinks, you name it
Think
the connivence store drink case's and you basically have it
They
also sell drops, additives and this stuff in a straw that you mix with water
And
that is just in my little store
Very
very cool
Now
there is a lot of controversy about how much THC is in these edibles
The
Denver Post is testing them and running a story about the various companies
products
And
how some companies product have very little THC in them
For
example one company advertised 100 mg in their candy
The
Post found their product actually had .75 mg per candy
This
caused the WC to say WTF????? Suzanne:)
They
are basically making and breaking companies
And
I say
God
bless you Denver Post!!!!
I
have purchased a couple of edibles that did not make the poor old WC high at
all!!!!!
Shame
you .........you frauds, you charlatans, you hucksters !!!!
Well
so much for my little rant.....
All
transactions are basically in $20 increments
$5 at the least
No
change and taxes are included
Cash
only
No
credit cards cause the owners can't get bank accounts
These
guys are rolling up to State Treasury with a pistol on the seat and 50K in a
bag to pay their taxes
But
you know the State is loving those tax dollars
But
I know you are asking
Does
the poor old WC think the pot is medicinal????
Not
being a doctor
I
don't know
But
I say try some
You
will be happier
Whatever
ails you.......
