On Jan. 1, Colorado becomes the first place anywhere in the world to allow legal marijuana sales to anybody over 21 for any purpose. You have questions about how it will work? Here are 64 answers (See what we did there? No? Keep reading.) to commonly asked questions.

Question: Marijuana is about to be legal in Colorado?

Answer: Marijuana is actually legal now in Colorado. Since the voter-approved Amendment 64 (ah, there it is) went into effect on Dec. 10, 2012, it has been legal for anyone 21 and over to use marijuana or possess up to an ounce of marijuana for any purpose — even if it is just, as Rolling Stone magazine has put it, "for getting high purposes." Marijuana possession and use by people under 21 who aren't medical-marijuana patients remains against the law.

Q: What's happening Jan. 1, then?

A: New Year's Day is the first day that marijuana can be sold to anyone over 21 at specially licensed stores. Though marijuana use, possession and sales remain illegal under federal law, nowhere else in the world has pot sales this legal, not even Amsterdam.

Q: So, where can I buy weed?

A: There looks to be more than two dozen shops able to open on Jan. 1 for recreational sales. We here at The Denver Post have compiled a list of stores expected to be open. But it comes with two caveats: There may be other stores out there open for recreational sales on Jan. 1, and it's possible some of the stores on the list will choose not to open on Jan. 1.

Q: How will it work?

A: Basically, you walk into a store, show your ID and make your purchase. It's a lot like a liquor store.

Q: Where are the stores located?

A: The state has approved licenses for stores from Telluride to Alma to Garden City. But the vast majority of recreational marijuana stores, at least initially, look like they will be in Denver. Lots of other big cities — like Colorado Springs — have banned the stores. Other cities, including Boulder and Aurora, look likely to allow them but are going slow in setting the rules and accepting applications. Of the 136 stores that received state approval in the first wave of licenses to go out just before Christmas, 74 percent of them — 101 — are in Denver.

Q: Are there limited store hours?

A: Yes. Under state law, stores can't open before 8 a.m. and they can't stay open later than midnight. Cities, though, can set more restrictive store hours. In Denver, recreational marijuana shops can't be open past 7 p.m.

Q: Are there limits to how much I can buy?

A: People with a Colorado ID can buy up to an ounce of marijuana at a time. People with an out-of-state ID can buy up to a quarter ounce.

Only problem is that there is almost no place to use your cannabis.
Can't use it in public, or in a forest.
Not in a bar or restaurant or at the shop where you buy it.
Nowhere that would involve driving afterward.
So, you are left with using it in your own home - but not if you rent, though, and have a no-smoking rule.
Jesus.

Say!
I like green buds and hash!

And I would smoke them in a boat!
And I would eat them with a goat...
And I will vape them in the rain.
And in the dark. And on a train.
And in a car. And in a tree.
They are so goodm so goodm you see!

So I will eat it in a box.
And I will smoke it with a fox.
And I will vape it in a house.
And I will eat it with a mouse.
And I will smoke it here and there.

Dope lol ^ I always knew the cat in the hat got his toke on.

Figure you cheese heads would like h more then weed. Jk man

How silly they tell you you can smoke but only in certain places. The us givernment is on such a power trip over the war on drugs its rediculous.

Smoking eating and vaping marijuana while camping or whatever else you do in a forest or outdoors go hand in hand.

Yup. I was about to say the same thing.

While it's anybodies guess on how long this will go on before federal overrides state and starts kicking in shop doors and arresting owners/employees & seizing their shit. The same way they did when it was strictly medical. While I never really heard/read about that happening in Colorado, and more in California, we all know it's definitely a possibility. I truly hope I'm wrong though, and they just leave the stores/people alone.

...& for the record, I fucking love that this is happening. It's definitely a step in the right direction to ending this so called war on drugs. Now I'm jealous that I live in Ohio instead of Colorado.

So uh, how are the seasons in Colorado again? ;) haha.
