Willie Nelson and Weed: "Marijuana Saved My Life"

Love his music, he sure is weathered but MJ seems to work for him and his hard life. Too bad he probably doesn't know about grape seed ex as an anti aging property. I have no desire to toke but if it helps others I don't care.
 
Funny how the article mentions that he has emphysema. I wonder if smoking marijuana has anything to do with it. There are people who break all the rules & are lucky - he's probably one of them. Everyone I know who didn't stop smoking was gone by 60-70. Personally, I think anything that leaves a residue in the lungs can't be good for you.

Then there is the category of people who enjoy something & they'll say "It's good for my health." I had a co-worker like that. On our lunch break, we were chatting about what we like to do after work to relax. I said, "I'll put some music on the stereo & have coffee." Another person said, "I'll play with my cat." This guy said, "The first thing I do when I get home is suck down a six pack of suds." I said, "Six cans of beer? Isn't that too much? He said, "Oh no....beer's good for you."

Yes some just defy odds and smoke into their 80-90's and live on. I didn't read the article but it doesn't surprise me about Willie's lungs. Now we have a new generation of lung disease with these new ecigs or whatever they are called.
