To celebrate the 70th birthday of Elvis today I mostly swanned about in my pajamas and watched Bubba Ho-Tep. Actually I was blissfully unaware of the King of Womanising’s birthday and it was just a co-incidence that I watched a film depicting an aged Presley fighting a redneck mummy.
In a relatedly bizzarre co-incidence, Louisa came up with an article showing what Mr. P. might have looked like if he’d lived on. Bruce Campbell had a better take on it in my opinion.
People who think that Elvis faked his own death to get out of the public eye obviously have no idea what kind of person it takes to be a rock and roll celebrity (or anything other egotistical attention-seeking psychopath). Now I’m not saying he didn’t do it to avoid paying taxes though.
