    I would like to this moment to say, Rest in peace at your citizenship heavenly home Dolly Parton. We're going to miss the, 'Over the old boulder shoulder" song she made fabulous amongst many more fabulous songs, parks, and more. Dolly Parton is one American that the world will miss.🙏🕊️🪽

    There is no other voice in the world like that beautiful woman I grew up to her music. I looked up to her as a little girl. The world is a darker place without her in it.

    Richard Feynman proposed the parton model in 1969 to describe high-energy collisions of protons and neutrons.

    He visualized hadrons (composite subatomic particles like protons) as being made up of smaller, point-like constituent pieces.

    Rather than committing to a specific name or theoretical baggage while analyzing experimental data from the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC), he simply called these pieces partons (as parts of a whole).

    These "partons" were later proven to be the quarks and gluons predicted by Murray Gell-Mann. Gell-Mann jokingly and derisively referred to Feynman's neutral term as "put-ons".

    They are treating Dolly death like she was a Queen of America.

    While other singers death don't even make the news.

    Paradise has ended,
    And she wasn't religious
    And her book charities was a joke
    You can't eat books, the very very few she help was minimal.

    These phony philanthropy millionaires and billionaires are a joke in corrupt America
