Status of Legal Marijuana in Colorado

Part of Amendment 64 that Colorado voters passed last November was to enact legislation on the sale of marijuana by July 1st. Unbelievably, the Legislature passed a bill on time. There will be at least 25% tax, and local areas will come up with their own rules on sales and taxes: http://www.westword.com/2013-07-11/n...marijuana-thc/

Colorado has already sent a hemp flag that flew over the U.S. Capital Building on July 4th: http://www.westword.com/2013-07-11/n...tates-capitol/

Will I try it when it's legal? Maybe; but I haven't touched the stuff since the late 80's. I hear it's a lot stronger now, and riding a motorcycle is already my high. I just don't see any reason to get dumber nowadays.

A woman at my gym owns a medical marijuana store and has asked me to stop by and look at the place. It must smell nice. But I like the smell of tobacco until it is lit. We'll see.
