...Nelson's waist-deep, reddish pigtails have long been one of the singer-songwriter's signature features. But spokeswoman Elaine Schock said Nelson, who's been hanging loose in Hawaii, got his hair cut in the past couple of weeks.... he might have grown tired of dealing with long locks.

If he divided up those pictails into tiny bunches he could sell them on eBay for $1000 each and earn enough extra dough to buy Mexico.

Me, too. He HAS to be doing something with his braids because they have to mean a lot to him.

Maybe he’ll frame them and save them for his presidential library, “Presidents I’ve smoked on the WH roof with.”

Does he have any idea how much that hair is worth!?

Probably enough to pay off the IRS and still have some left over for ten years worth of weed.

“I love Willie Nelson!”

I do, too. I saw him live in the ‘80’s with Dolly Parton and just saw him live in December @ a concert and he can still pick and play. He’s an original.

So the usurper is also a zombie. That would explain the limp wrists. Or not...
