Dolly Parton's Birthday Is Today. Huge Cans And Hanging Your Bras To Dry.




Dolly Parton's OK in my book. And it's her birthday today. She's 64.

She seems like a pretty likable person.

But there's something about her that you guys probably never noticed. She's got enormous cans! Really. She does. I could never figure out if they were real or not. Because she's had them ever since I could remember. And fake boob weren't even invented in the 70's? I think. I'm too lazy to look it up. Does anyone know?

And I wonder if she ever hung a bra out to dry and some kids came up and thought they were hammocks? "Hey, you kids, skittle along now, you're sitting in Dolly's unmentionables. Oh never mind. You stay put you. I'm coming out there with some iced tea for ya'll."

You know that probably happened.

Delta Dawn. Tanya Tucker. All Fired Up on Jack Daniels.

I was just watching Dancing with the Stars....uh..by accident?

And Donny Osmond was on. So I look up the Osmonds on the Youtube and I was checking out a Donny and Marie video. Marie...Niiiiice. But then on the sidebar I see Delta Dawn by Tanya Tucker*. Here's the video. Doesn't she sound like a goat at certain parts?

Does anyone remember this song?

But it does bring back a nice memory of when I heard this song on the radio when I was a kid.



*a few years back I was on a photo shoot and this photographer used to do all kinds of rock photography. I swear he photographed almost every major musician. So we were talking about music and he said he once photographed Tanya Tucker and she was telling him about when she used to be a major alcoholic. Said she used to walk around with a Jack Daniels bottle with a straw in it. What the hell?

Hee Haw. Johnny Cash. Backward Country Folk On TV.

When I was growing up and Hee Haw came on the TV, I would literally dive to turn the channel. Frankly, it sickened me. I wanted nothing to do with those hicks and their Country music or down on the farm "comedy".

But I just watched this Hee Haw clip and I was laughing. Laughing at how stupid it is but I was still laughing none the less. I kind of like the simplicity of the jokes. I wish there were video of the writers working on these bits. Now that would be really entertaining.

So check out this hokey clip which includes Johnny Cash*. And have a great Saturday night.



* For the record - I love Johnny Cash.

Johnny Cash At Folsom You SOB

Could you imagine if you were sitting in a bar and me and Johnny Cash came walking in? Oh my God! We'd rip that joint a new a-hole. And you'd be witnessing the whole damn thing. You'd be telling the story to anyone that would listen for years after that.

So here's my Friday song send off. I dedicate this to Jennifer and Giggle Pixie.



Later.
