Marek, my best friend
in love with my favorite guy
I'd never go back.

Cori MacNaughton

Please allow me to formally introduce my favorite guy in the world, Marek Rzeczkowski, my best friend, long time love and, more recently, my husband. He is also, as you can plainly see, a complete and utter goofball.

Here he is in true form, doing his best Cheech and Chong impression (with one of my white sage smudge sticks), which naturally I had to immortalize with my camera. This is, in fact, one of my favorite photos of him, and was taken in the living room of our previous home, in Largo, Florida.

It was funny, but when I was telling him about this photo last night, I had chosen not to put it on Steemit until speaking with him, but his immediate response was to put it on at once. My kind of guy.

And even funnier, at least to me, is that although "Up in Smoke" was hugely popular when I was in college in L.A., I never actually saw the film until we saw it together, in this same living room.

I was into bicycling, SCUBA diving and marathon reading at the time, and none of my friends were into it either, so it was just never my thing. Which seems to be hard for some people to grasp, that yes, I came of age in L.A. in the 70s, but I wasn't into drinking or drugs. It's almost beyond belief.

And the irony there is that in 1978, when the film was released, I was living in Venice Beach in the same neighborhood as Tommy Chong, and although I didn't really know him, I saw him around pretty frequently.

He was clearly a good guy, as my Newfoundland, Ebony, liked him, and he liked her. She was an unerring judge of character.

Marek is not very active on Steemit as yet, being on the road a lot, but he is @mareklo. ;-)

Melaleuca, a company that has been making natural, eco-friendly
products since the 1980s, that not only work as well as
chemically laden versions from the supermarket,
but are safer, and typically save money overall in addition.

I was introduced to them by a co-worker in 1990, lost track
of them, and was thrilled to find them again about a year
and a half ago. I strongly recommend their products.

All words are my own.

The photo of our dog, Lolo, and our late cat, Miod, I took as they were cooperatively begging at the dinner table, despite our longstanding rule of not feeding them from the table.

You can see how much that deterred them both.

The image and video are the intellectual property of Jean-Luc Ponty, his producers and record companies, and all rights remain with them.

I claim no rights, but offer this video, as I offer all the music videos I post, in the hopes of promoting my favorite music artists, so that more people become familiar with their music, and that they grow their fan base in the process, as they so richly deserve.
