Jan 2014

stop with cliches and stereotyping - we're not munching on Doritos or gorging on pizza. This state is one of the fittest and least obese states in the nation.

A whole bunch of people don't smoke weed, none of the men/women in any one of my docs offices smoke weed, some of my son's friends in their 20+ age demo don't smoke weed. Some people don't even like it. Many employers still do random tests so those folks aren't smoking either.

Pot heads is another term I'm tired of hearing. The potency of the product out here is makes it pretty hard to smoke very much.
I don't consider myself a pothead...I smoke one/two hits during the day for motivation and at night for sleep.

As a Colorado native I can say we do like our pot - have for decades, it's always easy to get because of our location in the Western US. Some of us can't drink out here in the thin air - pot, not a problem.

Not everyone is smoking weed in Colorado.
