What does a skeezy beauty pageant, and “hot ass” and “best orgasm” contests have to do with medical marijuana? Nothing. But for some reason all three are events were listed as contests as recently as Tuesday afternoon for the upcoming HempCon convention…
A few weeks back, we reviewed the Enjoy Jar, a four-part herb container meant to keep your strains separated from one another. After the review, the folks at Enjoy sent us a few more for the office. Instead of hoarding them for ourselves, we figured that we’d offer them up…
Despite rumors that state licenses wouldn’t be issued until next year at the earliest, several medical marijuana clinic owners in the mountains say they have reached the final stages of the application process and are within weeks of getting the final okay from the Medical Marijuana Enforcement Division…
This dispensary has been renamed Sacred Seed. The green and white paint job of The Wellness Center stands out along a drab of East Evans like a bowl of dank in a sea of schwag. But it isn’t until you park that the actual size of the building comes into…
The photo seen here isn’t a screen capture from the last scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark. No, these boxes contain medical marijuana business applications that have been gathering dust up until now. And I was invited along to watch the first of them get brushed off…
The owners of a Highland day-care center, who objected in June to The Clinic, a medical marijuana center, moving into the neighborhood, sold their business and building to the MMC earlier this month, allowing the pot shop to finally open their doors last Saturday after a two-month delay…
Denver medical marijuana dispensary owner Jim Rice knew there was no way CBS producers could ignore his taped application for their reality TV show Survivor. “I had, like, twenty pounds of pot surrounding me,” he explains. “You know they don’t see that every day.”…
Groundswell’s sign has the usual green, leaf-like images on it, but it looked like an art gallery the first time I drove past. Confused, I circled around and parked in a 7-Eleven parking lot to get a better look at the place, and before I knew it, I was inside…
The DUID-marijuana working group, formed under the auspices of the state’s Commission on Criminal and Juvenile Justice, met yesterday afternoon to consider recommendations about setting THC driving standard. After about three hours of hashing out a lot about hash, members eventually decided not to back a specific blood limit…
Medical marijuana center applications with the city of Denver are sitting in storage — and in limbo. Furthermore, the director of the office charged with processing them isn’t sure when they’ll even get to the first one…
This dispensary has closed. I walked past The Clone Store twice before I finally saw its sign on the door out front. Granted, I was stoned, but the shop wasn’t easy to find — especially compared to its highly visible next-door-neighbor dispensary, Alternative Medicine Capitol Hill…
Like a lot of racers, NASCAR driver Ronnie Hults has wrecked a car or two. It’s part of the profession, and he knows it firsthand, telling 9News last night that his body has paid the price for high-speed collisions — notably his lower back and hips. Some nights, he feels…
Back in January, we showed you video of local glass blower Ben “Spice” Crowley doing his thing at the Heady Glass Gallery and Studios in Englewood. Spice has since moved on, and gallery owner Chris Keller has since brought two nationally known artists to Colorado: Dawnk and Train Wreck…
A Fort Collins medical marijuana clinic was open as usual Monday despite being a crime scene the day before. As Michael Roberts reported yesterday in his post about a possible Fort Collins dispensary ban, Herbal Wellness LLC was robbed at gunpoint on Sunday. I spoke earlier with an Herbal Wellness…
Now and then, companies send us medical marijuana-related products ranging from vaporizers to board games. We showcase them in our quasi-regular product review section, Stoner MacGyver. The latest? Enjoy Jars…
I get high with a little help from my friends, and now I need your help getting to South By Southwest (SXSW) Interactive conference next March. SXSW Interactive precedes the more famous music conference and lacks pretty much all of the sex appeal, cool bands and secret shows. But for…
Natural Remedies is on the fifth floor of a turn-of-the-century building on Market Street above Sonoda’s Sushi. The building has a central staircase and the smell of freshly fried tempura wafts all the way up to the fifth floor, generally overpowering the feint smell of cannabis until you get to…
I’m not a big edibles guy — something that stems from my early experiences making brownies using ground-up schwag. The memory of the slightly burned, and entirely gritty, undercooked chocolate mass that put me to sleep still haunts me to this day. And medically, it doesn’t make much sense for…
This dispensary has closed. Pearl Co. is on the little stretch of South Pearl Street, just down the way from Sushi Den. This may have been purely coincidental, but I’d like to think not — since very little goes better with a case of the munchies than sushi, and nothing…
Editor’s note: William Breathes’s weekly dispensary review, which recently moved into the 4:20 p.m. time slot (appropriately enough), will appear in this space soon. In the meantime, here’s another Breathes post, about two kinds of green. Want to hit the greens in public this weekend for a good cause? This…
Marijuana activist Corey Donahue is the target of a theft and disturbing the peace warrant. The reason: Last month, he allegedly took documents from the Medical Marijuana Enforcement Division without paying for them…
Update: Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol Act proponent Mason Tvert decided this week not to pursue an official complaint against activist Miguel Lopez for allegedly snatching a signed petition from a Regulate volunteer in July. We’ve spoken with Lopez, who says he is happy to move on from this incident…
