      Back then they called it a lid, which was an ounce. And you could buy a lid for about $20, now they are $200, or more. A friend of mine still smokes weed and he buys it legally for $80 to $100 for an eighth of an ounce, with all the crazy names, like purple kush, wedding cake, etc.
      In the 70's we had just mexican weed, Acapulco Gold, hash, and hash oil. Some of it was trash, you smoke a bunch of it and it would just give you a headache. Now it is all super powerful and one hit gets you high.
      When I was in high school it was drug central, from 1975 to 1978, we would go to school and do drugs all day, I could get any drug known to man. From weed to hash, to coke, to acid like window pain, orange barrel, Mr. Natural, etc. That window pain was crazy, 1 hit of it and you were tripping for 8 hours.
      I mostly just smoked weed and hash. It was fun times, and Cheech and Chong were legends. All my friends smoked and we all had dirt bikes, all we did was get high and ride dirt bikes all day.

      But they improvise from their original script. Like JD telling her story was an improvise added scene. The actress had a roommate like that and was telling everyone at lunch. One of the guys got Cheech to hear it and he told Chong we are making this the next scene after lunch. They were obviously very amateur making this movie and in some way shape cinema in some form or fashion. Tarantino said their movies were some of his inspiration especially talking about something while doing something else like the royale with cheese scene

    The 'TIED STICK' weed Cheech refered to was a stick about the size of a cigarette pack(which you could hide it in)with skinny sticks that had several thick wraps of Leaves from potent plants from Thailand carefully wound around the stick and tied around with a fine string. You just started at the top & carefully peeled off enough leaf to put in a rolling paper. It isn't done anymore. That's a piece of Ancient History Now.

    Chong worked for Motwown as a guitarist before comedy. There's a great Joey Diaz Chong interview if can find on here where Chong tells his story. Micheal Jackson & Jackson 5's first concert was opening for Chong's band!😅
    Born in '71 & discovering them in early 80's, I, like most before computers, had no clue Chong the mastermind behind duo. I was blessed to see the reunion show at famed Ryman Auditorium in Nashville in '10, a dream come true. However, in '93 I heard Chong was doing a solo set down the street at Zanies. So i went wondering how the hell is he going to pull off a show without Cheech? He was still "old Chong", black hair & beard & proceeded to tear the roof off! It was GENIUS to behold. Everybody knew the bits so he just grabbed audience members to play Cheech's parts. No spoiler here, but for FiFi bit he grabbed a hot chick! Was PERFECTION!!!😅 Then, the best part, he pulled out his guitar & jammed all the "hits" while we, the audience, sang Cheech's parts.🤘😎 And, believe it or not, was better than reunion with Cheech!
    Also, among others you may recognize if keep on the Cheech & Chong trip, Pee Wee Herman got his break in their joints.
    FINALLY!!! Cheech & Chong starting to get some young Love! 🤗💕
    Appreciate it!

Burroughs as "devil" on my right, I managed to not only survive drug culture, but thrive these 53 years!!!😅 I know Cheech originally dropped out because he thought he stereotyped his people.

    My first year of college was 1972 and that's when Cheech and Chong's 2nd album, Big Bambu, came out. Inside the album jacket was a rolling paper as big as the album. For those who might not know, Big Bambu was a brand of rolling papers.
    One really stoned night at the dorm I pulled the giant paper out and we tried to roll a 2 ounce joint. Which is impossible to do BTW, but we tried.
    When this movie came out and when I saw Chong lighting the huge joint I was unfortunately taking a drink and spit the drink all over the couple in front of me.

    • @davidaquarius9089

      I got the album shortly after its release and by the luck of the draw, I got three papers in mine. Supposed to only get one but I won the lottery and got three. And yes, we used one to roll a Zeppelin joint. Not sure why you had a problem but we managed to do it just fine. Took four dudes four days to smoke it. Someone had to tell me that fact as those days are no longer in my brain. I still have the album but only have one paper left. Not sure what its worth on eBay but it's never leaving my possession.

    I was lucky enough to record an audio commentary track with Cheech Marin for the BluRay edition of his directorial debut BORN IN EAST L.A. and he had amazing stories. One I particularly dug was that before he became a comic, he was a music critic, and he was briefly roommates with a great folk singer named Karen Dalton, whose song "Something On Your Mind" is one I highly recommend for a future song reaction. Karen Dalton never became a big star herself, but she was influential enough that a later country star, Lacy J. Dalton, took her stage name from her.
    I was also lucky to be friends with June Fairchild, who played the "Ajax Lady" here. She had been an actress in films like HEAD with The Monkees and PRETTY MAIDS ALL IN ROW with Rock Hudson and Angie Dickinson. She had also been the girlfriend of the lead singer of Three Dog Night, Danny Hutton, and she had effectively given the band their name (telling them how Australians would sleep with dogs to stay warm in winter and a "three dog night" was super cold). When I met her she had just kicked a habit that saw her homeless, and was staying straight and finding work again. The other shorter blonde girl who appears with her at Strawberry's house was Cheryl "Rainbeaux" Smith, an actress who did lots of cheerleader movies, and also was a replacement drummer for The Runaways after their original left the band. Sadly, Rainbeaux died young, and June and I went to her funeral. June herself died several years ago, but I stay in touch with her daughter.
