Frito-Lay and the cookie companies must love this.
I wonder what their tourism stats will show. Hotel stays: up! Snack food sales: astronomically up! Productivity: tanked.
Cheech and Chong, the smug druglers.
Colorado is lost —
Washington states first pot shop closed on Friday.
Reason?
Lack of inventory!
Any ideas what Obama was doing after he shot pool & drank beer with Colorado Gov. Chickenpooper the other day? Hint: Choom Gang.
I was arguing about this at the gym. Bob said, “I’d much rather meet a high driver than a drunk driver.” I said, “A drunk will blow through a stop sign like it isn’t there. But a guy who is high will stop and wait for it to change.”
Frankly, I don’t want either on the road.
Everybody must get stoned -
Bob Dylan
I’ll never forget one time I was living in Las Vegas listening to a talk radio show on a conservative station named KDWN and the subject was whether or not marijuana was addicting and a pot-head called in extremely angry and abusive to the radio host and claiming loudly and with great emotion that he (the pot-head) KNOWS that pot is not addicting because he’s been smoking it every day for 10 years and he KNOWS he’s not addicted.
I don’t think it was a put-up job or satire or sarcasm. I think pot really does make people that stupid. That guy really believed that his 10 years of daily pot smoking somehow QUALIFIED him to say that pot is not addictive.
“It’s my right to be stoned at work!”/s
...and has been for years. Only now, with legalization, there's some way to measure the amount.
Let me show you my shocked face.
Not a surprise at all; CO people have been in the doldrums for a decade or more really.
It’s a Colorado Rocky Mountain high
A couple of months ago there was an article reprinted on FR about how the CO pot retailers were doing so poorly - sales were way below projections and the government was not collecting anywhere near the tax revenues they had anticipated.
Which is it?
Pot use will go up when you decriminalize it...
Based on the issues and costs associated with alcohol abuse, you would think they can add 1+ 1 = 2
More use more problems and issues and additional costs...
I wonder how much of these additional tax dollars generated from pot sales Colorado wind up being used to address these issues...
Imagine that! I wonder how much the study cost to come up with that earth-shattering discovery?
Where there’s smoke...there’s Colorado.
