He then opened a night club in Vancouver, where he met Marin, an American dodging the draft.

When not acting, Chong is clear-headed, soft-spoken, and articulate. Yet in 2003, Chong's home was raided by the Drug Enforcement Agency.

He's now staring in the Marijuana Logues and took some time out to answer a few of our questions. DM) I grabbed the staff and had them compile their favorite questions. One of the guys asked, "With society's focus on morals values, if you were starting off on your career now, would you be able to do the type of comedy that you were famous for, with the references to marijuana and all? TC) (laughs) Probably, more and more so. Every good story has to have conflict. In comedy that's where it came from. Lenny Bruce was persecuted when he started out in the Eisenhower era. He was persecuted for swearing. Although it kind of killed him—actually, his drug abuse killed abuse. So the answer is, yeah, it's the best time in the world for that. DM) Is the sensitivity to moral values more prevalent now than when you were starting out?

When their visitors announced themselves as police, the Chongs assumed the cops were chasing some neighborhood prowler. The couple quickly surmised otherwise after Tommy opened the door and more than a dozen members of the Drug Enforcement Agency poured in with guns drawn. Although the feds, accompanied by some Los Angeles Police Department cops, would reportedly find a pound of marijuana, the real objects of their search were bongs made by the Chong Glass company, a plant located in Gardena, 24 miles away. That winter Monday would be a busy day for Attorney General John Ashcroft’s Justice Department, which, in the middle of its highly self-publicized war on terrorism, found itself with enough time and badges to raid 55 individuals and head-shop businesses under an obscure statute banning the sale of drug paraphernalia. No one at the Palisades house was arrested that day, but two months later the government would charge Tommy Chong with one count of conspiracy to distribute drug paraphernalia. Suddenly, at the age of 65, Tommy Chong, who had never been arrested in his life, faced a felony conviction and jail time. Stranger still, Tommy Chong was not the owner of Chong Glass and its Nice Dreams line of smoking pipes.
