Wal-Mart gives me the Willies

But too bad they don't give me the pot-smoking, marijuana leaf Willies.

Wal-Mart is going to alter the album cover of Willie Nelson's forthcoming album, Countryman, by changing the marijuana leaf that's featured on the cover, to a palm tree. A palm tree! I mean, not only can you not smoke it, but they don't even grow in the country! Granted, this is a reggae album (Willie Nelson and reggae?!), but it still seems hokey.

Here's the article from Yahoo! News that gives more details. This reminds me of the time Wal-Mart banned an album by Sheryl Crow because a lyric in one of the songs made reference to people buying guns at Wal-Mart.

So if I have this straight by Wal-Mart standards: Cheap pickles = good / Marijuana = bad. Selling guns to people = good / writing lyrics mentioning that we sell guns to people = bad.
