Yep,I remember that as well. And the "trailer trap" and the station wagon full of kids and the IOUs William Shallert was always giving out. And the old man dancing with the broom in the night club. Wow, I am a wealth of Elvis knowledge. But, Jeff will NOT allow me to tell my Elvis stories. Ever!!!!!

What a change! It's been awhile since I've checked in and I'm quite surprised. It may take me awhile to figure it our but first look it's really great.

Saw an exchange on Twitter today that cracked me up. A music magazine I follow tweeted something along lines of "Elvis died on Aug 16, 1977? Do you remember where you were?"

One reply was: "I mostly cried and wet myself - but I was only 4 months old."

Who cares about Elvis when there's a great looking Toy Bolton Chevy in the pics?
