From the Houston Chronicle:
Willie Nelson, outlaw country singer and Texas' most famous pot smoker, has swapped out smoking joints for something that doesn't hurt his lungs quite as much.
Nelson reportedly told Uncut, a British music magazine, that he uses a vaporizer to toke up because joints are more harmful for his lungs and singing voice, according to WTVA.
The singer told Uncut magazine, "I enjoy smoking. But I use a vaporizer these days; they're better for your voice and lungs. There's no smoke and heat on it. Even though marijuana smoke is not as bad as cigarette smoke, any time you put any kind of smoke in your lungs it takes a toll of some kind."
Nelson has lately been spreading his pot knowledge, giving New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd advice on how she should consume marijuana for a column.
"I needed a marijuana Mr. Miyagi, and who better than Nelson, who has a second-degree black belt in taekwondo and a first-degree black belt in helping NORML push for pot legalization?" she wrote. http://www.chron.com/news/local/article/Willie-Nelson-I-don-t-smoke-joints-anymore-5782830.php
Well, at least, his tour bus won't smell so bad of pot.
And for my favorite Nelson song:
Well, at least Nelson still has longer hair than Sheryl Crow.
