    I was at the National Gallery of Art quite a few years ago, visiting from Europe, when I heard a voice I recognised explaining certain works there. I went around the corner, and found Cheech Marin talking to a group of about 8 people. All the works in this room were works from contemporary hispanic artists. He was giving a somewhat private tour of part of his collection. They let me join the group. Made my day!

    World of respect for Cheech and Chong. So glad you two exist and what you have shown people about weed and good people you have been. Thanks Chong and give Cheech a pat on the back too. My wife went to the same school as Cheech in Canada. She is a good one like you have as well. Thanks again Tommy for the haedcore laughs as well. I recall one day in HS metalshop the instructor for some unknown reason to me while at our desks. Brian what are you looking at ? I was looking at him talking to the class IMO. After a few seconds and baffled by his question I replied "I WASN'T LOOKING AT HIS NECK MAN" Half the class looked confused and the other half familiar with your movie laughed uncontrollably some fell out of their desk. Up in Smoke and Next Movie are the only movies I have watched multiple times and still will. Bless you two !
