A former industrial engineer in Denver intends to build the most alluring, tasteful pot dispensary on the planet, with the Apple store as his inspiration. So imagine this with a marijuana leaf instead of an Apple. (Credit: Apple) Let's say you were going to get into pot. No, not for medicinal reasons. For money, for business, to secure your family's future and all that. Suddenly, the state where you live decides that pot is quite an acceptable business proposition. So you decide to create a dispensary to attract the troubled, the monied and the naturally pot-headed. What should your dispensary look like? Should it have large leaves on the walls and be called Pot Jungle? How about placing random beige towels and armchairs about the place and calling it Pot Barn? Andy Williams, a 45-year-old former industrial engineer is thinking different. He is modeling his new, two-story pot dispensary on the Apple store. "It's going to be all white and beautiful," he told the Associated Press. All things white and beautiful will undoubtedly attract all creatures great and small. This is something Apple has proved over the years. So Williams intends to ensure that his 40,000 square feet of space will be an airy invitation to bathe in everything about marijuana.
