    You gotta love the way Willie plays that guitar!

    Willie is the twelfth son of the Republic of Texas, and has thirteen daughters of the republic for sisters, of the Nelson Clan. Rear Admiral Nelson of the Texas Navy is his Dad and Charlotte Laughing Blossom is his Mother from Indian Nation of Big Bend National Reserve.

    He built his guitar out of an old Edsel that was junked. He studied with the Japanese Opera Company of Albany before his debu as a Country Western Hi-Hopes. Then he was plundered by his friends when he started getting paid for his act… because he smoked weed and drank lots of Tequila with Jerry Jeff Walker. ….when along comes the IRS.

    He owes them rev’noors lots of dough. Then he has to pawn his cowboy boots, that he made for himself from an old stuffed Grizzly bear that once stood in the showroom at the Jack Roach Ford in Houston. He had to walk in his stocking feet for a few months in a spirit quest to Austin, and Gaucheness’s at Luckenbach, and back again to Houston.

    He cleaned himself up as he got himself some of the first Adidas ever made, and began running while stopping drinking. Everyone in Houston then called that “jogging,” btw people still jog the same trails as Willie, but it was first called bogtrotting down on the bayou.

    Turns out his Edsel Martin and he made a few good turns, and he is still bringing checkers to the chess matches in humbleness and truer intentions than most entertainers/joggers today.

    Does that help Dr J? Glad to straighten that out.

    Well, I haven’t yet, I said to wait a few more days, but I will in 1-2 days and I will announce here the winner!

    Thanks Carol; nothing nicer could ever be said to me.
    Hoping to draw more entrants… clik HERE… at MooPig Wisdom

    Hi Ovidiu, and welcome back if I forgot to say so:
    I put it on the MooPig for my two readers. I thought this one would bring multitudes in… but they aren’t here. Maybe if this were posted closer to Christmas… eh? as your good marketing idea usually has to have a timing factor? No?

    Re-issue the challenge now, and see if that is the case. I can wait for the drawing… others too?
    Thanks for the opportunity.. pd-in-full Pat. Pending

    G-V — Hear; Hear! I second that observation about Mr Ovidiu. Truly inspired, and so humble to boot, and a lot of heart. Let’s all give it up for our friend.

    Well said G-V.

    I only had a few enter my last CD drawing, but that’s okay. It’s good to go ahead and honor the original terms of the contest so readers see you as credible.

    And ’cause I’m ready for that boxed set! I love me some Willie!

    Always great to hear Willie Nelson. Have had the opportunity to visit with Willie and Bobbie on a couple of occassions. They are both so gracious and friendly. Look forward to seeing them in Abbott when they can.
