Andy, three months shy of 18, was not originally supposed to accompany his sister to the foster home. But he convinces the social worker to give him a chance until he can apply for legal guardianship. Unfortunately, Laura seems intent on driving him away. He already has lingering trauma from finding his dead father (and other things that will be revealed in time), and now there’s this chipper, tiny woman ready to gaslight him into insanity. Barratt, who won acclaim for his portrayal of a 12-year-old accused of killing his mother’s boyfriend in the British television film “Responsible Child,” is excellent in a difficult role.
CHONG: And he was a big pot head and didn’t want to get outed. All those guys. Johnny Carson.Cheech: We were the new mainstream. We were showing what the mainstream actually looked like.
CHONG: He never wanted to break up but he always wanted to be able to do his thing. I’ve always been the dominant guy. It’s not so much because I’m better, it’s because I’m only good at certain things. I’ve always felt our job was to stay with the plot. That’s why we never went any further than pot, as far as drugs.

This last movie was unlikely.CHONG: I kind of compare it to Cher’s goodbye tour because she’s had, what, 18 of ’em? People ask me how do you want to be remembered. I like how we’re remembered now. When people think of Cheech and Chong, they smile. So I want to be remembered with a smile.

told a congressional panel on Tuesday that those who still lack an identification that complies with the REAL ID law “may be diverted to a different line, have an extra step.”There’s already an extra screening process in place for people who lose or forget their IDs while traveling.
It wasn’t clear Wednesday how many people without REAL IDs were facing extra screening beyond being handed the TSA flier.REAL ID is a federally compliant state-issued license or identification card that Homeland Security says is a more secure form of identification. It was a recommendation by the 9/11 Commission and signed into law in 2005. It was supposed to be rolled out in 2008 but the implementation had been
