CO: Growth in Medical Marijuana Raises Questions

'GLENWOOD SPRINGS — With the boom in medical marijuana dispensaries in the Roaring Fork Valley, area schools and businesses find themselves struggling to update their policies to address a question they never had to deal with before. How do you handle a student, or an employee, who shows up stoned — with a prescription?'

Marijuana, Boom and Bust

'By the end of the decade the cultivators were learning how to grow. There was an enormous variety of seeds--Afghan, Thai, Burmese. The price crept up to $400 a pound, and the grateful settlers, mostly dirt poor, rushed out to buy a washing machine, a propane fridge, a used VW, a solar panel, a 12-volt battery. Even a three-pound sale was a relatively big deal.'

OK: Police Seize 1,500 Pounds of Marijuana

'Officers seized 1,500 pounds of marijuana early Saturday after a police dog detected the illegal drugs in a parked vehicle.'

Shaking Off Pot's Negative Image

'The first-ever International Cannabis and Hemp Expo is a chance for the public to learn from vendors and speakers and see 100,000-square feet of displays showing off products to grow and ingest marijuana. Bands and musical acts will entertain and an onsite "medication tent" will allow people to, well ... medicate.'

Federal Pot Case in CO Highlights Worry Among Growers of Medical Marijuana

'Jeff Sweetin, special agent in charge of the DEA's Rocky Mountain Region, said state and local police hesitate to go after pot growers because of the conflict between state and federal law. Federal authorities are the only ones left to enforce marijuana laws, he said.

"I'm not here to be the regulator of medical marijuana," Sweetin said, adding he'd prefer to "work the highest-level drug-trafficking organizations."

Instead, he fields daily phone calls and e-mails about medical marijuana growers. Half want the DEA to ignore them; half want the DEA to bust neighborhood dispensaries, he said.

A brief filed in Bartkowicz's case by U.S. Attorney David Gaouette argues that no matter what Coloradans voted for, no grow operation gets a federal pass.

"Colorado's state drug law does not, and cannot, abrogate federal drug laws," Gaouette wrote.'

Product Review: Mellow Monkey 5022


I've never done a review of my own on this blog, but I have linked to a ton of strain and product reviews. I don't have firsthand experience of a lot of different bongs, but I have run across a dozen or so in my time as a stoner.

I got the piece yesterday from Primal Glass Werks. It's 16 inches tall and stemless, made of a nice, heavy glass. The hits I took were smooth, and hit my brain like a freight train...that even rhymed, no wonder you all read this blog.

If you're a pipe, blunt, or joint smoker, the hits from a large, well made bong take some getting used to. But it's well worth getting used to.

I don't have a grading system for these things, so I'll just say if you're in the market for a sturdy glass piece, you can't go wrong with The Mellow Monkey.
