If you come to docnight this week, you'll be indulging me... I'm constantly being told that I look like Tommy Chong; by 8 year olds here in the North End, and by the Captain of the River Rouge who got his picture taken with me so he could show his friends that Tommy Chong was on the boat, and others as well. I don't know anything about Tommy Chong, so I thought it might be interesting to check out this documentary.
