Marketing and all things related

Marketing Blurb loves all kinds of music, but we confess we really don’t pay much attention to country and western. We have nothing against country and western music, and we think country stars do an especially fine job of pitching Ford trucks. But we have to admit that this Associated Press photo of Dolly Parton scared the ahem out of us. This is the scariest-looking country star we have ever seen. Dolly is pitching her new cookbook. You can’t find this culinary masterpiece at a bookstore, you need to visit Dollywood or purchase online. Did Dolly stick her head in a blender for this photo? No, as a matter of fact, Dolly just revealed that she is secretly Courtney Love’s older sister! Photo Credit: Associated Press
