CALLING ALL POTENTIAL POT REVIEWERS: WESTWORD WANTS YOU!

Do you know what this is? [photo

you!

Do you have a medical condition that necessitates marijuana? Do you
have a way with words? If so, Westword wants you to join the ranks as
our freelance marijuana-dispensary reviewer.

To provide an objective resource on the state's burgeoning medical
marijuana scene, Westword has launched "Mile Highs and Lows," a weekly
review of Colorado marijuana dispensaries. Now we're looking for just
the right person to take the reins.

The job is simple: Visit a different dispensary each week (without
revealing you're working for Westword) and pen concise, impartial and
snappy accounts of your experiences. Keep in mind this isn't about
assessing the quality of the medicine on site; it's about evaluating
the quality of the establishment. After all, we can't have our
reviewer be stoned all the time.

The perfect candidate will be a talented writer who's not about to
play favorites -- and, of course, someone who has a state medical
marijuana ID (or the ability and need to obtain one). Compensation
will be meager -- and no, we can't expense your purchases, although
that would be pretty cool.

Think you've got what it takes? Send a resume (informal is okay;
handwritten on rolling papers isn't) and a one-paragraph essay on
"What Marijuana Means to Me" to joe[dot]tone@westword.com. The more
creative the better -- so get rolling.

(Fair warning: Because we think it might be really funny, we reserve
the right to publish any samples we receive, though we won't use any
full names without permission).
