Thread Name: Happy Birthday, Elvis! (born 8 January 1935)
Subject: RE: Happy Birthday, Elvis!
And if your Aunt had balls, she'd be your Uncle!

He wasn't called "The King" because Buddy died, or he was better lookin than Carl, or he was whiter than Little Richard.

Nothing like him before, some pretty good imitations since, but no real contenders!

If someone comes along that changes the world as he did(with regards to entertainment), I hope I'm young enough to still boogie!

And on that note, I think I'll go listen to and watch my new Aloha From Hawaii double CD that my kid got me for Christmas(shit.....now there's another "King" I'll probably have to defend).
