Dolly is just genuinely a nice person. Why would anyone think this was funny? How do you punish someone who doesn't care, though?

I agree. What a crass thing to do to her.

I don't understand the issue, please enlighten me.

Is she concerned that people will beleive these poorly constructed sound bytes are real?

The fact that she is such a nice and "innocent" person is what makes this funny. Not that I've heard these, but it's like when you have a grandma that never curses drop an f-bomb... It's hilarious.

For the most part, I don't much care for Stern, but sometimes he makes me laugh. More often than not he's just an a*****e, though.

By the way, I disagree with you on this point, lark:

Clearly she did not think this was funny.

Dolly has been suffering from what I like to refer to as "A.D.D. Frequentia", which is, according to hooskers onplime dictionary; The direct emotional suffering resulting from the absence of a substantial amount of the population paying any attention to you..


She has it no more...

praise God!

Yeah right...I guarantee any concert she appears at would be packed. She's a cultural icon.

She had a song #1 on the country charts two years ago, and just finished a tour in Europe, where she's also very popular.

So is Hasselhoff...

and make no mistake t1000, I love her cultural icons.

Lol...Who doesn't?
