SIERRA BLANCA, Texas (AP) — A U.S. Border Patrol spokesman says country singer Willie Nelson was charged with marijuana possession after 6 ounces was found aboard his tour bus in Texas.Pot on Willie Nelson's tour bus? I can't believe the marijuana was Willie's. A mysterious someone surely planted the pot and the pot smoke on the bus.
Patrol spokesman Bill Brooks says the bus pulled into the Sierra Blanca, Texas, checkpoint about 9 a.m. Friday. Brooks says an officer smelled pot when a door was opened and a search turned up marijuana.
....
Sheriff Arvin West didn't immediately return a phone message left at his home Friday, but he told the El Paso Times that Nelson claimed the marijuana was his.

Right, Mimi! Shocked. . .
ReplyDeletePuts me in mind of a fine joke.
ReplyDeleteA woman who was a great fan of country music had a tattoo of Merle Haggard executed high on her right thigh, and a tattoo of Waylon Jennings at the same spot on the opposite thigh.
Worried that the tattoos might not be recognizable, she slipped off her panties, lifted her skirt to the man sitting next to her at a bar, and asked, "Can you tell who these guys are?"
The guy put on his glasses, looked real close, and said, "I don't know who the guys on the left and right are, but the one in the middle's Willie Nelson for sure".
Medicinal purposes only, I'm sure!
ReplyDeleteLapin!
ReplyDeleteI hope poor Willie don't get too much time in the clinker.
moi aussi -- quelle suprise
ReplyDeleteAnd now it's morning, my synapses are making more connections, and I would like to add that I haven't been this shocked since Major Strasser was shot! "Round up the usual suspects!"
ReplyDeleteAnd now that my synapses are making even more connections, and I would like to add that I haven't been this shocked since Capt. Renaud found that there was gambling going on at Rick's place!
ReplyDeleteLapin made me laugh (I'm afraid).
ReplyDeleteThanks Cathy. Willy Nelson's never looked quite the same to me since I first heard that joke.
ReplyDeletesusan s., You took the very words right out of my mouth.."shocked, shocked to learn that there is gambling going on at Rick's Place."
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, it did occur to me that Willie might have said it was his, even if it were not, to keep some member of his band from getting into trouble.
Susan, you're on a roll! When your synapses get to working, they produce awesome results.
ReplyDeleteCathy, I scolded Lapin, so now it's all right for everyone to laugh at his joke.
...it did occur to me that Willie might have said it was his, even if it were not, to keep some member of his band from getting into trouble.
BooCat, Willie would do that.
I would dare say that Willie was supplying everyone on the bus.
ReplyDeleteBTW, if you haven't been to St. Laika's today, you should check in. MP has a cracking Advent Carol Service going on. Lovely music, Scripture readings and poetry. Fine stuff.
ReplyDeleteThere was a country singer on Willie Nelson's Pot Bus? ;-p
ReplyDeleteMimi, you didn't tell us you had been on a coach trip with Willie Nelson. At least it wasn't your "purse" that you left behind this time.
ReplyDeleteSusan, I visited St Laika's. We have a Gielgud in the making.
ReplyDeleteJCF, you made me laugh out loud. A+ for you.
MadPriest, you should know that the pot I use most often is not the smoking kind.
