Dolly Parton
Dolly Parton turned 78 the other day and everyone celebrated it. Nashville rightfully celebrated it the most as she is an absolute icon in country music and around the world as a philanthropist, entertainer, and all around good person. Going to the Grand Ole Opry for a show celebrating her birthday is a treat I’m […]
Do you even need to say her last name? Nope. She is a one name superstar and if you simply say “Dolly” everyone knows exactly who you’re talking about. She has been gracing the radio airwaves since the 1960’s with her debut album “Hello, I’m Dolly” which just seems to be the best way she […]
She is a national treasure and the current Queen of Country Music! You can add “Rock Star” to her title with her recent rock album.

Most know that Dolly Parton helped with a donation of funds to Vanderbilt University for vaccine research. Yesterday it came full circle as she received her Moderna shot. That vaccine was developed from research that Vanderbilt was part of. She shared video showing her getting it on social media and encouraged others to do the […]
Just so it’s said right up front: I was able to get the vaccine because I am a volunteer EMT and considered part of the front line workers. I’m nowhere close to the heroes working in the hospitals – Doctors and Nurses, cleaning crews, and care professionals that are working in the middle of this […]
Over the years Saturday Night Live has had a slew of great impressionists. From Dan Ackroyd’s wacky Julia Childs to Dana Carvey’s loved impressions of President George Bush Sr. and Ross Perot to Darrell Hammond’s spot on portrayal of President Bill Clinton and hilarious take on Sean Connery. One of the underrated cast member s […]
