Citizen Chong

Well it is now offical...We just pitched a reality
show to our first television company. The show is
called Citizen Chong and it features my wife Shelby
and my two grown sons Paris and Gilbran. The boys have
taken me up on my offer of "if you attend school and
get good grades I will support you". It took a few
years of both of them in the "real world" of jobs
before they figured out what a sweet deal they had in
front of them. So the show swirls with the drama of
grown men living together with their pot parents.
Shelby and I are on the road quite a bit making money
to support this venture while the boys stay home and
attend school. The camera follws us as we try to cope
with my recent incarceration for selling bongs. Our
show is very "pot related" so there is a bit of a
quandry trying to stay out of jail but still do what I
have been doing for the past 30 years. My stint as Leo
on That 70's Show has produced a whole new batch of
fans that mingle with my older Cheech and Chong fans
who also mingle with undercover DEA agents who have
been following me around looking for a reason to bust
me again. My wife Shelby is my comedy partner and she
has her own issues trying to be the partner, wife and
business manager and mother to the grown sons who are
hired to help out at home while we are on the road.
To add to the mix I decide to make a run for the
office of Drug Czar in the up coming election. I am
actually creating a new "office" to represent the
unrepresented in this country. All in all this is
going to be the big hit show of the television reality
show season...as long as every stoner watches it
regularly...that is a bout 50 million people ....tc

why is alcohol legal if it kills people, when marijuana is illegal when it may help people relieve pain?

Tommy received this email from an acquaintance.

I don't want to depress you, however, I just want to share with you the saddest day of my life. I am heart broken. My youngest child, my beautiful daughter and she was a most beautiful and talented daughter, died early this morning of cirrhosis of the liver. Unknown to me, she contracted hepatitis when getting a cheap tattoo as a teenager. This was dormant until recently. A year and a half ago she came down with a rare disease and was paralyzed from the waist down and gradually came out of it over the following year.

However, during this time of regenerating her nerves in her legs and feet, she was in extreme pain. She is not and was not a drug user. No medication from the doctors could relieve the pain in her legs and feet. I suggested that she try marijuana to help with the pain she had. Because of the stigmatism of being a drug, she did not want to use themarijuana. Her pain in her legs and feet was unbearable, so she resorted to drinkingVodka as a pain medication. I knew that she was drinking to relieve the pain. however, I didn't realize the extent she was drinking to relieve her pain. I also, being a bit knave, did not know that a person with cirrhosis of the liver cannot ever drink.

I am devastated at the loss of my daughter. My point is... why is alcohol legal if it kills people, when marijuana is illegal when it may help people relieve pain?

I cannot believe my loss. My daughter was the world to me. Please help me make this point!

Candidacy For United States Drug Czar

Hi everyone welcome to my blog.
Tonight is a special night because I am announcing (to
my friends) that I am running for the office of Drug
Czar of America. Now i realize that the office of the
Drug Czar is an appointed one by the winning party in
the White House but because my chances of being
appointed are very slim and almost non-existant I am
actually going to campaign like every other politician
and ask for your votes. Now your votes will be
symbolic but the media will pick up on this so your
votes will be counted and reported over every media
outlet so actually your votes will be noticed. As we
all know America's policy on recreational drugs have
been abhorrant and disgusting at best and downright
raciest at worst. My drug of choice is and always has
been marijuana. I know for a fact that marijuana has
way more "good" qualities than bad. I know because I
have been "experimenting" with marijuana for well over
fifty years! I know first hand what this drug is
capable of and how 'dangerous" it really is. And I
know why the American Goverment has demonized it and
made it illigal. All these facts will come out when I
am on the campaign trail running for drug czar. Now I
have found a way in which people can vote...it is very
simple..all you have to do is buy my Beaners Coffee.
Thats right for every baggie of beaners sold it will
be counted as a vote. So when you vote you will also
be supporting my bid for the Drug Czar office in 08..I
will have more to report on my campaign as things
develop further but right now I want everyone to email
thier friends and tell them the good news. Come this
next election all the stoners, burners,liberals, rap
musicians, poets, fast food workers, roofers, framers,
stockbrokers,motercycle mechanics,airline baggage
handlers.... and all you pot heads that I did not
mention...you will be represented in Washington by me

Tommy Chong Coffee

Hey Everybody, I am getting into the coffee business.
Yes...I am about to launch a Tommy Chong Coffee label.
I wanted it to be a Cheech and Chong coffee but Cheech
did not want to be included. When you hear the name
maybe you see why... I will announce the name tomorrow
when I secure the domain etc...Any way thats the big
news of the Chong day....tc

Received a call from Cheech

Just recieved a call from Cheech. He wants me to do a
play ( not yet written) that depicts us before we were
Cheech and Chong. It would be events from our lives
played by actors. I told him I thought it wasn't what
our fans would want to see. Anyway I would have to see
a script before I could make any kind of an
intelligent decision. I then asked him if he would be
"Cheech" of the Up in Smoke Movie and do a television
special featuring the Cheech and Chong characters from
the records and movies and he said...."He'd think
about it but he really is too busy with other offers".
The bottom line here is Cheech does not want to be who
we were for over 16 years together and I sure do not
want to be a back-up guitarist to his serious "Duets"
singing.
On a happier note I saw a pitch tape (8 minutes) that
we are showing around Hollywood featuring Shelby and I
and our family. Yes it is a "reality show" folks
showing the behind the scenes of a stoner family.
And we are appearing at Penquins Comedy club in
Bittendorf Iowa next week....so stay hig and be
cool....love from ...tc

Back From Alabama

Hey man, Whats up stoners? Well I am in LA cooling it
for a few days. Just finished a gig in Burmingham
Alabama. And we all had a nice time cause the folks
were so friendly! I love the South and I love the
stoners in the South because they are a special breed.
Ya got to watch 'em though. One time a cop in Georgia
set up a "Drug Inspection Station" where he'd pull
people over and inspect their cars for "drugs". He
made so many arrests that he had to stop the program
because he couldn't handle the crowd. I heard a dumb
Hilliary Clinton joke. Seems like old Bill would be
accosted by a hooker every time he went jogging. The
hooker would yell to him as he went by...$50.00 to
which Bill would reply, "How about $5.00 dollars!. And
the hooker would decline the offer. This went on for a
few days until finially Hillary decided to go jogging
with Bill. Of course Bill tried to jog past the hooker
real fast but she saw him and hollared...." Hey Bill,"
See what you get for five dollars?".......I thought
that was pretty funny...mean but funny....tc
