ASPEN, Colo. — Cheech and Chong (search) may have joked about marijuana in their movies, but the comedians say they didn't touch the stuff when the cameras were rolling.

"We tried one time and we wasted so much film," said Tommy Chong (search), recalling a scene in "Up in Smoke." "We were in the car waiting for the cue, you know. And the camera's rolling and we're sitting there, you know, and neither one of us heard the cue." Chong and former partner Cheech Marin (search) appeared together for the first time in 20 years at the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival.

Marin and Chong, who recently completed a nine-month sentence for trying to sell marijuana pipes on the Internet, said they are writing two new films, "Grumpy Old Stoners" and "Lord of the Smoke."

1. they should try doing a documentary on decriminalization

They both have the profile and the name recognition necessary to be taken seriously on the issue. And who better to push for decriminalization than the guy who got busted for selling unused pipes?

2. I Heard Tommy Chong Interviewed on NPR Yesterday

He was the straight guy, and I never thought much of him one way or the other. But the interview was hysterical -- he was describing his his past experiences with law enforcement and going to prison. It was a hoot. Will try to find a link.
