\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 As I make my daily 18 mile drive to Shattuck at 6:07ish am, I listen to a mind numbing channel called “The Sports Animal”.\u00a0 I almost never learn anything yet, I still tune in.\u00a0 The morning animals rattle on mostly about the u of o football team and whine about how bad the Thunder suck.\u00a0 But they do list celebrity birthdays.\u00a0 And they will discuss the accomplishments of these celebrities–best movie, song, athletic achievement, etc.\u00a0 They argue about these items.\u00a0 I listen.\u00a0 I’m not any smarter when I get to the Ag Building.\u00a0 Yet, still, I listen.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Today, they listed a celebrity birthday and they deemed this person a “National Treasure.\u00a0 And since the passing of Betty White, she is most treasured national treasure.”\u00a0 \u00a0 As I already have placed her on the Mount Rushmore of female entertainers and it is a well documented fact that I am a fan, I agree with those clowns on the sports animal, without a doubt,\u00a0 Dolly Parton is a national treasure.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
Dolly trivia–<\/p>\n
–She wrote 2 hit songs on the same day.\u00a0 Those songs?\u00a0 \u00a0“Jolene” & “I will always love you”.\u00a0 That’s a good day of writing.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
–EGOT club–people that have been nominated for an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar & Tony awards.\u00a0 Seriously, google that list of people.\u00a0 It’s packed full of wicked good.\u00a0 \u00a0Some names like James Earl Jones, Henry Fonda, Meryl Streep, Morgan Freeman, Barbara Streisand, etc.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
–The first ever cloned animal was named after her.\u00a0 Remember Dolly the sheep.\u00a0 Yep, they used cells from the mammary glands of that donor.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Which is the better Dolly movie?\u00a0 Steel Magnolias or 9 to 5?\u00a0 I’ll take Magnolias.<\/p>\n
Best Dolly song?\u00a0 The song that she & Whitney took to #1 or Jolene.\u00a0 \u00a0I’ll take Jolene.\u00a0 Now if you want to argue that her duet with the Gambler is her best–okay.\u00a0 Won’t argue.\u00a0 Not something worth fighting over.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
1960’s smokin hot Dolly or the 80’s pumped up, stretched, tucked & whatever else—60’s!\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Here’s to another post involving music and not much livestock.\u00a0 Yet, she does fall into that G.O.A.T. category.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
