HEY, TOMMY, HOW ABOUT THAT 50 BUCKS?

I have enjoyed your recent articles on the Tommy Chong Alberta years.
My father is a born and raised Calgarian who has taken quite an
interest in the articles as well. I am told by my dad, who grew up in
Mount Royal, that he associated with Stan and Tommy Chong for a period
in those days. He even worked with Tommy on a labour crew. The article
mentions a number of old-timers and stories that my father remembers
from back in the day. Could you please send regards to the Chongs from
Joel Horwitz and remind Tommy that he still owes Joel $50?
