We have never been big smokers, neither Cheech [Marine] nor I. We were too creative, and we had a lot to do. We are actors and to be honest, I am the type of person that can reference a thought or a smell and get high.

There's a hierarchy in prison, and I was right at the top.

When they put me in jail, that's when they turned me into an activist. Up until the time I went to jail, I was just a comedian.

I converted a family-owned strip club into an improvisational acting theater.

Once you're a felon you're a target.

I'm dancing tango, and I'm playing golf, and I'm quite active, you know, and for my age and everything, and what I've gone through, I'm very happy.

Unfortunately, the American justice system is just riddled with lies and inconsistencies.
