Tommy Chong's Advice

by TChris

Tommy Chong is still trying to overturn his conviction, but he's staying out of jail and going back to work.

The performer has plugged back into the stand-up circuit. He's just written "The I Chong," which chronicles his "wrongful" stint in the pokey, for Simon and Schuster. And "AKA Chong," a hit at the Toronto Film Festival, documents his arrest and prison ordeal.

Chong hopes to raise money to pay for his legal fees. In the meantime, he's imparted some sage advice:

"If there was a lesson to be learned," Chong says in a phone interview from a friend's home in Los Angeles, "it's to never put your face on a bong."

    T Chong has it exactly right! NEVER put your face on a bong, apply any or all facial/lung interfaces to the bong opening(s), not ON the bong! ( and don't forget to apply digital obstructions to the carb;-)

    hmmmm, this could well explain the problem: putting your face on the bong is probably considered a crime against nature in some southern states. certainly, it's a terrific waste of time. lol
