The traffic stop was conducted on the westbound lanes of Interstate 10 near milepost 110. When the door was opened and the Trooper began to speak to the driver, he smelled the strong odor of Marijuana in the bus. After smelling this, Troopers conducted a search of the bus. During the course of the search, approximately one and one-half pounds of Marijuana and approximately two-tenths of a pound of Mushrooms were located on the bus. Troopers placed the driver out of service.

I am so shocked. . .it took so long for someone to bust him on this. It is not like he keeps it a secret.

WILLIE NELSONhas taken his love of gospel to the max – by buying a church. The country legend surprised the congregation at the Methodist church in his hometown of Abbott, Texas on Sunday (02JUL06) when he performed gospel songs and announced his plans to preserve the 107-year-old building.Nelson was joined by his sister BOBBIE and pal LEON RUSSELL. The church closed its doors in May (06) after the congregation merged with another United Methodist Church nearby.But Nelson was determined to bring church-goers back to the old building, explaining during Sunday’s service that he and his sister had been regulars since they were kids.He told the congregation, "Now, you’re all members of the Abbott Methodist Church, and you will be, forever and ever."Nelson’s new church comes days after the country great launched his own satellite radio station, WILLIE’S PLACE. He also owns a biodiesel company, called BioWillie.
