Gotta love Dolly who is one very shrewd business woman. Of her attire she says that the "hooker" look has always worked for her. Her talent is so multi-faceted and being an ex banjo player,I have always wondered how she can zap through those bluegrass numbers with fingernails as long as her fingers.

I hope that folks realize this joke was presented in fun, and in no way was meant to belittle Blondes. When I was in high school, I thought that blondes were cute especially if they had healthy hair. Now, as I am becoming aged, my hair has turned blonde (Some say its gray; I say its a matter of perspective.)

I'm a blond and I still think that's funny. I was a platinum blond until age 19, now I'm a dishwater blond. my two brothers have spent my entire life telling me dumb blond jokes and I love it. They can both tell stories why I am called the family's blitzy blond. l.marie

Score! I hear you on the cost of fuel oil. We try to fill up one time in the early Spring when the cost is hopefully coming down. We primarily burn wood. So far we have been able to get by with one tank of oil per winter. It is a lot of work to cut, haul, split and stack wood. Then throw it in the basement a load at a time when we start burning. But it is waaaaay cheaper.
