You Gotta Love Willie

Something is wrong with you if you don’t love Willie Nelson.

There a great story about Willie going on trial in Waco several years ago for getting caught with marijuana in his car.  The officer saw a car on the side of the road with a man asleep inside.  A subsequent search revealed the evil weed.

During the pre-trial hearings, Willie’s lawyer asked the young arresting officer, “And, sir, what was your probable cause for seaching this man’s car?”

The young officer sat there for a minute and, with disbelief in his eyes at that question, answered the lawyer, “Uh, Sir, it was Willie Nelson.”

I think that story is true,  In fact, I’m pretty sure it is.

Willie is going on Larry King Live and there’s a preview of Willie explaining that he partakes of a grass cocktail every day.  “I have a huge tolerance for it,” he says, which pretty much qualifies as the understatement of the year.  Huge doesn’t begin to cover it.

Gotta love Willie.
