Marijuana Testers Required: Over 65s Feeling Ill Welcome (Marc Emery Forbidden)

by | 29th, July 2010

MARC Emery languishes in jail in the US – the same country that sees a man known as William Breathes get paid – legally!- to test marijuana.

Emery’s crime was to sell cannabis seeds over the internet from his base in Canada and have customers in the US.

Meanwhile in the US, Denver’s Mr Breathe is one of the first medical marijuana critics in the country.

And he is doing a valuable job:

A decade after medical marijuana was legalized in Colorado, it’s estimated about 2 percent of residents — or more than 100,000 people — have applied for medical marijuana licenses.

(Over 65s can apply.)

William Breathes reviews pot dispensaries and the quality of the medical marijuana they sell.

An editor at Westword tells us:

“He has his journalism degree. He was a good writer, and he could also punctuate and he could spell, which was very different than a lot of people who applied for the job.”

Mr Breathes, who took up puffing the weed to relieve stomach pains, reviews one hit of weed thus:

Load up a little bit and taste it. Try and taste the smoke as it comes out. It has a really woody finish, almost like a mesquite finish to it. After a few hits, try to see what kind of buzz it is.”

Other tips: Make notes. Do not wait to write your review but start immediately. Petition the US to free Marc Emery…
