October’s Marie Claire includes “Stiletto Stoners” an article about how some professional, successful women unwind after work with a joint or a bong rip rather than a cocktail. Many women interviewed speak of how high stress and all consuming their jobs are, and how they don’t care to go to bars to party after a full day. They describe a functional pothead as a “balls to the wall career animal whose idea of decompressing after a grueling day isn’t a glass of Chardonnay but a toke (or two or three) of marijuana- not just every now and again but on a regular basis- the type who stashes a pack of E-Z wider rolling paper in the silverware drawer or keeps a pipe at the ready next to a pile of bills.” That sounds cool and everything but we’re pretty sure these women aren’t amateur enough to be rolling E-Z Widers- then again they are still wearing stilettos so who knows? -blogue.us/2009/09/16/getting-high-on-the-corporate-ladder |

STILETTO STONERS!
-Sound reckless? Not when you consider that marijuana has already been decriminalized in 13 states. In cities like Boston and Denver, small-time pot busts are minor offenses on a par with parking violations; first-time offenders earn a token fine—$100 or so—and a talking-to from law enforcement. In California, where the distribution of marijuana for medicinal purposes was legalized in 1996, some 31,000 residents carry cards that make purchasing locally grown weed from any of the state's estimated 500 dispensaries as easy as filling a prescription at the local pharmacy. Abuse of the system is rife: "Everybody has a friend who has a card," says Gabrielle Doron, a 29-year-old L.A.-based event planner. "My friend will call me up and say, 'I'm going to the store, you want anything?' It's just not very hard to get."
