    That's Dolly's real hair color and what she started out with, back when she first came on Porter's show, replacing Norma Jean. The blond hair has always been wigs. The voice is young, but still the same. She had a sister, Stella, that had some minor success in Nashville, but Dolly had the more distinctive voice. As for the boobs, they were still real back in the mid-60's. Then things changed. The rumor is that Dolly first had silicone injections and later went to implants, but the timeline is fuzzy. They do have names - Shock & Awe.

    The eyes are either too big, or set too far apart. And, it's still creepy. Especially those that made creepy music.

    Of course, all the risks should be considered. Then convert that to total long-term injuries and deaths. Then compare that to the number of acceptable long-term injuries and deaths. If we are below the acceptable losses, then go for it. The problem is that for some reason, your leaders still haven't published the acceptable casualty numbers.

    Seems unwise even if it were stable. You stumble out of the tent to whiz in the dark and off you go.

    @copper @copper said in Fun anecdote on DNC convention: @horace said in Fun anecdote on DNC convention: And the all-important endorsement of Rep. James Clyburn of South Carolina was in play when Clyburn cornered Biden during a commercial break at a Charleston debate and urged him to promise to appoint a Black woman to the Supreme Court. “This wasn’t offered as a condition of Clyburn’s endorsement, but it was an expectation,” the authors write, parsing a bit too finely. Biden awkwardly complied. politics is downstream of culture. Black women have been the majority of judges on TV and movies for a decade or more now. Is it possible to make a tv commercial without an interracial couple? I’ve seen a lot of commercials with white couples. They’re all dudes, but they are couples and white...

LOL I hope not and dont think so. If they think they can, they will... True. It will be "subtle" if it happens. Maybe start by taking over Kinmen and Matsu islands.....
