Elvis Presley is 75 and still alive inside of me!

There were many creative ways that proper tribute was paid to Elvis Presley for his 75th birthday. I saw a nice packaging of his greatest hits as I was checking out at Whole Foods. I already have a CD of his greatest, otherwise I would have picked it up. It do not have Guitar Man, however, and I still must collect that one for my
King Library.
I did find two preferential items on the internet, however, which I will link for you here. The interview of Priscilla Presley on the Today Show was excellent. There will be exhibits and events galore the whole year round at Graceland. Priscilla showed a primitive cell phone which Elvis kept in his car. She said that if Elvis were still alive, he would probably be doing gospel music more. Be sure to watch the video on the link and check out the excellent slide show of Elvis here too.
The other article is a review of the National Gallery exhibit of Elvis memorabilia, photos, portraits, caricatures, you name it. The piece is on the Epoch Times page and was written by Gary Feuerberg; its title is: Elvis Presley Exhibit Opened at National Portrait Gallery. There is even an oil painting by Ralph Wolfe Cowan that was done in 1988 from sketches of the King, done in 1969.
I have included a photo of myself; why you might ask? The reason is that every American has a dash of Elvis inside of them. This is certainly true for me as well. As you stare at my visage you are seeing Elvis at the same time! Weird, but nonetheless true. I give my all, just like the King did. That`s weird too. Fave pic is Elvis & Nixon. Please read my article on Elvis also, which I wrote on his death date (August 16, 1977). Memorize it, friendo! *(fav Elvis tune-Marie`s the Name of his Latest Flame)
