 Dolly Parton returns to public eye to celebrate opening day at Dollywood     Dolly Parton made her first public appearance in months to celebrate the opening day of Dollywood in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, on Friday. The country music icon reflected on the past year, a year after the death of her husband of nearly 60 years, Carl Dean, saying she is “doing good” and has been working to rebuild herself spiritually, emotionally, and physically after grieving and dealing with health issues that kept her from touring. Joined on stage by Dollywood president Eugene Naughton, Parton brought her trademark humor to the crowd, joking about rumors of a new husband while reaffirming her devotion to Dean. She also shared updates on her ongoing projects, including a new Broadway musical and her Dolly’s Life of Many Colors Museum in Nashville. Parton previewed the park’s 41st season, highlighting the upcoming NightFlight Expedition ride, a new “Run Dollywood” race weekend, an updated ...

EGYPTIAN KICKED OUT OF THE U.S FOR KICKING A SNIFFER DOG THAT FOUND STUFFED VEGETABLE INGREDIENTS. (PHOTO).


 

    An Egyptian man trying to smuggle over 100 pounds of food through Dulles Airport punted a CBP beagle into the air when the pup sniffed out the scam, resulting in the creep’s deportation, the agency announced.


    Customs and Border Protection Brigader Beagle Freddie, 5, caught a whiff of something suspicious coming from the luggage of Hamed Ramadan Bayoumy Aly Marie, 70, who arrived at the Washington, DC, airport from Cairo on Tuesday, CBP said in a release.


    As the detector dog alerted his handlers to Marie’s bags, the 70-year-old violently kicked Freddie with enough force to lift the 25-pound beagle into the air, the release stated.


    CBP officers then took Marie down, placed him in custody, and turned him over to Homeland Security officials.


    While inspecting the dog-kicker’s luggage, CBP officers found enough undeclared sundries to start a restaurant, including 55 pounds of beef, 44 pounds of rice, 15 pounds of eggplant, 2 pounds of corn seeds, cucumbers, bell peppers, and 1 pound of herbs.


Did he really think he could smuggle that much raw food into the country in his luggage without there being a smell? It's an absolute given a dog would be able to detect it, and just the weight of it seems likely to have drawn attention, too.


If it's not his first trip in an airplane, surely Customs would have opened such a suitcase from abroad and found the prohibited items, but the dog got there first.


It's such a strange case. Did he really think such foodstuffs wouldn't be purchasable in the U.S.? Even Washington D.C. has many Middle Eastern groceries with its specialties.


Biggest question of all was in his treatment of the dog. Did he really think kicking the working Customs and Border Patrol-trained dog into the air would have made inspection of his suitcase less likely?"
