Ray I can only say this… They stink!! Farce works for me!! Of to the Doctors love ya!!
Thank you, Fred. I wasn’t suggesting some of the people who did get nominated aren’t worthy but how in hell can some of the other names I mentioned not be considered?
Good Luck today!
Love Ya!
some of those definitely should be nominated but others are like what the hell??? And the ones you listed that should be should have been included years ago … what a travesty!!!!
Thanks, Penny, I couldn’t agree more!
Don, we are absolutely on the same page. I think Dolly Parton is everything you described and more, but she sure as hell doesn’t belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame … but I have a feeling she’s going to make it.
