Republicans this year quietly cut millions of dollars of funding for the late and beloved Dolly Parton’s children’s book charity, according to multiple reports.

nine years later and that, kids, is how I met your cousin!
not that many years, but yeah
we were at college and she had been dating my roommate’s little brother. he had recently left on one of those mission trips and i had recently met her. we clicked, i asked her on a date, then i asked her name to put her number in my phone. and she and my mother share a maiden name. so we decided on a friend date where we figure out our “Bacon numbers” from each other and the stories of how our families diverged. we were at a large religish college so I’m sure this scene was being played out daily, we needed that icelandic incest app.
dueling banjos intensifies 😁
you make me realize i need to include these anecdotes on the liner notes to my albums in that portion of my book.
