Comedian Cheech Marin to guest star on CW's 'Jane The Virgin'

CW’s Jane The Virgin is getting a dose of serious comedy cred: EW has learned exclusively that legendary comic Cheech Marin will guest star as abuelita Alba’s love interest.

The Mexican-American comedian—who gained notoriety as half of the successful counterculture comedy duo Cheech & Chong—is set to star in an episode of Jane The Virgin that’s slated to air when television’s favorite twentysomething virgin returns from its winter hiatus in January. The 68-year-old Nash Bridges alum will play Edward, whom Alba meets in physical therapy.

“We are so thrilled to have him join the show,” executive producer Jennie Urman tells EW.
Marin is the latest in a slew of Latin celebrities tapped to appear on the American revamp of popular Venezuelan telenovela Juana La Virgen. Colombian rock musician Juanes and third-season X Factor USA judge Paulina Rubio are scheduled to appear in upcoming episodes of the family comedy, which received a full series order last month.

Tommy Chong Launches Reviver Swipes

Comedian Tommy Chong, known for the marijuana-themed Cheech & Chong comedies, has partnered with Reviver Clothing Swipes to launch a line of swipes designed to remove the smell of cannabis and tobacco odor on clothing.

Reviver said the product helps keeps marijuana usage discreet, a need that is more relevant than ever with the growing legalization of both recreational and medicinal marijuana.

"While our culture is rapidly accepting cannabis consumption as a way of life, it's fair to acknowledge that smelling like cannabis in many public settings may not be cool," Chong said in a statement.

"I could have used my Tommy Chong's Smoke Swipe 10 years ago to save me from a lot of headache," he added, referring to a nine-month prison sentence he received in 2004 for shipping bongs to Pennsylvania. "Now, those who partake in it can keep it to themselves."
"We are honored to collaborate with the legendary Tommy Chong," said Reviver founder and CEO Ben Kusin. "With his input, we were able to develop the ideal product that's long overdue for cannabis consumers."

The swipes are portable and reusable, Dallas-based Reviver said. Customers can place a swipe on their fingers, rub the applicator across clothing to neutralize odors, and replace it into its re-sealable package.

Tommy Chong's Smoke Swipe is available for $10.99 per 3-pack at www.chongswipes.com and will be landing in head shops and dispensaries nationwide in the coming months.

As part of the comedy duo Cheech & Chong, Grammy Award-winning Chong minted six gold records and released eight films. Chong went on to star in several films and television shows, including his regular character, "Leo" on the comedy series "That 70s Show."

In 2012, Chong announced he was battling prostate cancer and decided to combat his illness with a controversial cannabis oil protocol. On July 5, 2012, he revealed that the cannabis treatment had been effective and he was cancer free.

FastFunds Financial Corporation Announces Completion of Agreement for Production and Promotion of Tommy Chong Branded Cannabis GreenCard

WEST PALM BEACH, FL--(Marketwired - Nov 20, 2014) - FastFunds Financial Corporation ("FastFunds" or the "Company") (OTC: FFFC) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Cannabis Angel, Inc., and The 420 Development Corporation, announced today that a definitive licensing agreement with Chongson, Inc. ("Chongson") regarding the production, promotion and sale of a Tommy Chong branded Cannabis GreenCard has been finalized. An extensive sales and marketing program is currently being organized with plans to roll-out the Tommy Chong Cannabis GreenCard into the market.

Tommy Chong is an actor, writer, director, activist, and musician. He is well known for his marijuana-themed Cheech & Chong comedy albums and movies with Cheech Marin, as well as playing the character Leo on Fox's That '70s Show. Tommy Chong most recently starred in ABC's Dancing with the Stars and continues to be an active proponent of the legalization of marijuana.

As previously mentioned in a press release dated June 19, 2014, the Company's 49% ownership in Cannabis Merchant Financial Solutions, Inc., allows for the development and marketing roll-out of the Tommy Chong Cannabis GreenCard. The Tommy Chong Cannabis GreenCard will be initially marketed to over 1,000 cannabis dispensaries in the Colorado, Washington State and California regions. Following the initial roll-out, all medicinal and recreational cannabis dispensaries will be targeted as prospective customers of the product.

The Company is organizing an extensive online presence and marketing program that will offer customers and distributors of the Tommy Chong Cannabis GreenCard the opportunity to purchase their card, reload their card with additional money, view points earned and track reward eligibility. Being able to offer a solution in the marketplace that will replace the cash-only component to the cannabis industry is expected to generate significant demand for the Tommy Chong Cannabis GreenCard.

"We have made significant progress in developing a product that will benefit cannabis dispensary owners. We look forward to bringing our product to market and capturing a significant portion of this thriving industry," commented Mr. Kurt Martig, President of Cannabis Merchant Financial Solutions, Inc.

"We're pleased to have entered into an agreement with Chongson and look forward to working alongside Mr. Tommy Chong and his team in bringing the Tommy Chong Cannabis GreenCard to market," commented Mr. Henry Fong, President and CEO of FastFunds Financial Corporation.
The Company believes that recurring revenues can be derived from its ownership in Cannabis Merchant Financial Solutions, Inc. and the Tommy Chong branded Cannabis GreenCard product. Given the numerous transactions that take place within the cannabis industry within retail environments on a daily basis, processing fees are expected to cumulatively multiply as the industry itself grows and matures.

Additional information will be released to shareholders of the Company pertaining to this development in the coming weeks.

Dutch Rolling Company, FUTUROLA Celebrates U.S. Expansion with Release of Tommy Chong Signature Line of Smoke Accessories

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) November 12, 2014

Legendary writer/actor/comedian Tommy Chong of the Grammy Award-winning comedic duo Cheech & Chong, and 2014 competitor in ABC’s Dancing with the Stars has inked his first-ever international co-branding deal with Europe’s top purveyor of roll-your-own smoke accessories, Futurola, to introduce premium Dutch rolling equipment to the expanding U.S. market.
Headquartered in “the smoker’s capital of the world,” Amsterdam, Netherlands, Futurola opened its first U.S. branch office in early 2014 to bring its line of high-quality smoke accessories to legal medical marijuana patients and American smoke enthusiasts nationwide. The collaboration, which unites Europe’s top brand of smoker’s equipment with America’s most famous toker, will feature a co-branded collection of roll-your-own essentials including fine, handcrafted rolling papers, herb grinders and Futurola’s patented rolling machine -- the only device on the market which rolls cone-shaped cigarettes, the preferred style in Dutch coffee shop culture.

Futurola’s exclusive line of Tommy Chong smoke accessories are expected to begin hitting medical marijuana dispensaries and smoke shops in both Europe and the U.S. as early as November, coinciding with a special promotional event showcasing the collection at the 2014 High Times Cannabis Cup in Amsterdam, November 23-27, 2014. Chong fans with plans to be in Amsterdam on November 29, 2014 are invited to enter a special contest to get “Lifted and Drifted” with Tommy Chong. Grand prize winner will attend a private dinner aboard a boat through the Amsterdam canals to a coffee shop for a chance to smoke with Tommy Chong. Ten runners up will receive a premium gift box from Futurola. Follow @FuturolaUSA on all social media or visit http://www.futurolaUSA.com for information on how to enter.

About Futurola:
Since 1996, Futurola has been Amsterdam’s leading brand of rolling papers and smoking equipment. Founded by brother and sister Evert & Yvonne Brandenburg, Futurola’s roots date back to 1984 when the siblings opened the popular coffee shop, “Future” near Central Station. The Brandenburgs expanded their family business with the launch of Future Bags in 1989, a wholesale storage bag company, made from sustainable materials, designed specifically to meet the unique needs of the coffee shop industry. The duo continued to set the standard for excellence by developing their signature line of high-quality rolling papers and roll-your-own equipment, spawning the renowned Futurola brand in 1996. Now widely recognized as Europe’s top brand of hand-crafted rolling papers, rolling machines, and superior smoke accessories, Futurola is expanding its operation by bringing their signature line of products to the U.S. http://www.futurolaUSA.com

This isn't the first time Tommy slipped a sexually suggestive comment by the censors.  A few weeks ago, he said that after his dance, there wasn't a dry seat in the house.

Great Tommy Chong Quotes from Dancing with the Stars

ABC's Dancing with the Stars was really funny tonight.

After Tommy and Peta finished their dance, Len Goodman said "Tommy, you're like a hot dog.  Tastes great, but there are questions about the content."

Tommy hurt his calf during rehearsal and said he "can't take his favorite painkillers."  Erin pretended like she didn't know what he was talking about.
