To me, this seems the next natural step for Denver, Colorado, where recreational use of pot is legal.  Denver County Fair will a joint-rolling contest (done with oregano, not the real thing), the Best Homemade Bong contest, dioramas made with Peeps and a Drag Queen Contest! Oh ya, there will be judging of the plants in the same way fairs judge other crops.

Smoking pot could cause man-boobs or "moobs" says Dr. Youn. Gynecomastia (or "Moobs") is caused by an imbalance of testosterone and estrogen. If a male has low testosterone and the body sways towards having more estrogen, that creates the man-boobs and apparently smoking marijuana is a cause.

The intent of the measure from what I gather is to allow people to smoke small amounts in their personal or a private space or one provided to them, like inside their home or designated areas. Similar rules to what we have
