Dollywood Values

This week’s Economist on Dollywood, and Dolly herself:

As a girl, she thought the town hooker in her make-up and stilettos was the prettiest thing she had ever seen. “She was trash,” Ms Parton tells interviewers, “And I thought: That’s what I want to be when I grow up.”

As I grow older and supposedly wiser, I’ve come to understand that Dolly Parton’s greatest gift is not, well, THOSE, but rather that voice; that wonderful voice and the tone that comes out of it. That’s the voice I’d want to hear bad news in, it wouldn’t be so bad.
