He needs a bus that doesn't have his name on it-you know if it's Willie there's illegal stuff in it. It was probably like Cheech and Chong where this bus is rolling down the road with huge clouds of smoke billowing out the windows.
(didn't say if the cop asked the driver for a bite of his chili dog.)

Nope, it was the 3 snack trucks following the RV that gave the cops probable cause.

I thought doing drugs made you stupid, go blind, and comment violent crimes.. Oh wait thats what the Government told me. They also told me that there were WMD's in Iraq....

Leave ole Willie alone. Smoking some herbs is no different than 50% of all Americans who are on some type of drug right now.. Just that they go to the big pill pusher (doctors) to get there mind altering drugs.

Can't focus... take a pill
Focus too muck.. take a pill
Too fat.. take a pill

Yeah, while everyone thinks that he should be let off, I don't. I'm not saying put him behind bars, but I am saying that it was a pretty stupid decision on his part. I think that this will reflect badly on the biodiesel industry (being that he was a representative of the National Biodiesel Board and all). I just hope that it doesn't give the industry another black eye, bc we certainly don't need it!

associating BioDiesel users with marajuana would be at least as immature as associating all americans with cocaine because our president did it when he was younger. sadly, most people are so fickle that this probably will give BioD a bad rap. tragic really. hopefully eventually people will be able to separate personal life style choices and political affiliations. it IS possible to be environmentally responsible and smoke weed without necessarily being evil.

Bio, Solar, Alternative Transportation, Hemp Clothing and all that Earthy stuff is what us Earth Muffins do but not the main stream. No sir, the main stream would not be caught dead in some bio burning vehicle. Not normal.

Since thats the case I'll take another heap of Alternative. Earth Muffins Rejoyce that we have all we want and could ever use.

Yes we are placed in the class of Pot Head Hippies of the 60's. Sad indeed. But then again there is more for me as most just scoff at the alternative ideas and ideals. Again too bad for them. I always boast of our solar and having a 2000 sq/ft home that is all electric and our electric bill is $4.65 per month. I get scoffed for that. I get scoffed for driving a diesel car. But no one gets scoffed for driving a big diesel truck. Too bad. They loose.

Willie, leave him be he is still stuck back in the 60's anyway.

I don't think BioWillie is evil, but I do think that he should've been more responsible since he is a representative of the Biodiesel industry. It is immature to associate smoking pot w/ Bio, but unfortunately, when a representative of an industry does something like this, then the majority tend to make associations. Whether celebrities like it or not, they are in the limelight along with every little thing they do.
I could care less whether he does it or doesn't; I just don't want it making biodiesel users/producers look bad! We're not all hippies and we don't all toke!

It is if she is trespassing. Don't get me wrong, I'm not condoning what Willie does, but that IS Willie. Willie also brings alot of clout to the table, not to mention money. (I don't believe he owes any more money to the IRS)

In Texas, Kinky Friedman is running for Governor. Kinky writes mystery novels and played in a band called Kinky Friedman and the Texas Jewboys. He is contraversial, but has some good ideas. He even said he would put WILLIE NELSON IN AS ENERGY SECT.!!!! He said willie would get is on biodiesel and reduce our dependency on Arab oil. I hope this does not hurt Kinky's campaign with Willie getting busted! Also Kinky said a few things that ticked some people off the other day. But this is one shot for Texas to be on biodiesel

Thats the whole point. What is illegal and who told you it was? If the gov. told you to jump off a bridge would you do it? What gives them the right to outlaw a PLANT?
Question everything, or be a victim of authority.... oh wait, we already are.

Me thinks that was one condition of Willie be of a mind to accept that appointment. Kinky would legalize maryJane.

Potraying willie or daryl as spokesperson(s) for BD is kinda like saying David Koresh speaks for all Christions or OBL speaks for all muslims. It simply taint true.

Agreed...but you know that. Many people who aren't using Biodiesel & aren't educated on it, automatically associate BioWillie with Biodiesel. I'm not getting into the political crap; I am just saying that BioWillie does represent the NBB in many ways (just check out their website), and he should've been more responsible/careful about what he was doing. I'll say what I said before....I don't personally care whether he smokes or not...I just don't want that making the industry look bad. Biodiesel has had enough hurdles to climb without something like this bringing media attention.

Then again, it may be that this won't affect the market so much.

We'll have to see.

Yeah, there seems to be a thing about the 2 Willies, and pot, and their judgement being clouded. Just ask Monica Lewinski, heck, even her judgment got clouded hanging around a former pot head. This couldl spread like a wild weed throughout the biodiesel community.

I think we should take a poll, how many biodiesel users inhale, and how many don't? :D I (cough, cough, cooooooough) don't inhale, just like the former prez.

Hemp seed oil would make excellent biodiesel... The whole reason why marijuana and related plants like hemp are illegal is because they would compete with the petroleum industry. Which country uses the most petroleum products? Which country is most opposed to hemp production? Both USA of course. Only large corporations with deep pockets can go out and drill for oil and refine it. Hemp could be produced by anyone with access to dirt.
