Its like Michael Jordan retiring from the NBA. Its like Donald Trump quitting Twitter. Its like Lindsay Lohan forsaking drama.
Willie Nelson has quit weed.
The country icon whose smoking habit was rivaled only by Snoop Doggs told KSAT TV, I have abused my lungs quite a bit in the past, so breathing is a little more difficult these days and I have to be careful.

Who is left for Richards to beat?
Chong: Dude, that would be AWESOME!!
Willie was/is a tough fella. He’s now 86 years old.
Tommy once asked What you want? Good grammar, or good taste? :)
Thank you!
My immediate reaction upon reading the headline was I bet he still ingests edibles.
What I meant is Willies admission that years (decades) of pot smoking has damaged his vocal chords. Adversity affected his singing.
I saw him in Reno some years ago. He drank a quart of cuervo gold and smoked a joint on stage. He never missed a beat!
Perhaps not by coincidence, the threat of climate change has dissipated.
Hes 86. Whats the point? Might as well smoke and drink whatever he wants to. What else is he going to do? Hes at least 30 years past the point where quitting any of it would have made any difference.
It’s good to see that someone who is more cultured than I is on the board. I vaguely remember the song, but don’t remember the artist.
The end of an era.
Did we run out of weed?!

Not exactly, but he did outlive his pecker!

I heard it was a par 37, but maybe that was a different hole.
I ran into Willie when I was doing physical therapy 30 years ago. He was on Long Island for a concert and apparently went to this clinic for a workout on more than one occasion. The owner said to us, leave him alone, he’ll hang out when he’s done. Which he did. One idiosyncrasy was when he used the leg press machine, he would jump at the end.
