Elvis Is Still Dead

But I'm Feelin' Pretty Good Myself...


For those not paying attention or that otherwise don't care, "The King" died on this day 29 years ago--that would be August 16, 1977.

I almost pulled off that trick Myself last year on this day--what a difference a year makes.

I wasn't really a big Elvis fan, but I did respect how he demonstrated what a poor southern boy could manage to do if he played his cards right and put his mind to it.

At least he didn't do the Jane Fonda, Sally Strouthers, Barbara Streisand psycho-politicalo babble thing like actors and entertainers do today.

From one son of the south to another, I offer a hearty and sincere...R.I.P. Mr. Presley...
