bluestar 0 #1 August 16, 2001 Help me please!!!!Here in memphis we are currently in the middle of "Tribute Week" or as it is refered to by some as "Dead Elvis Week". For those of you who don't know DEW is the week every year that Elvites from around the world converge on Graceland to mourn the aniversery of his death, and drive the rest of us too drink excessivly. Actually we would drink if we could get into our favorite neigborhood bar, Monday night I tried to stop at ye old watering hole, and was greated not by my usual New Castle (which is usually poured between me walking in the door and getting to the bar) but a mid 50's lady screaming and grinding agianst this 4'6" Asian Man in an Elvis costume (lip-sinking Hunka Hunka Burning Love) and ready to F him untill the king came back. Don't get me wrong Elvis was the S#@t but HE HAS BEEN DEAD 23 YRs!!! Anyway, the highlight of the week is the candle light vigil at Graceland on the aniversery of his death. These people will sit in front of the gates for hours lighting candles and listening to Elvis Music. Some of these people camped for days to get a good seat. Why to you need a good view if there is nothing to see? (BTY: has anyone been in Memphis in Aug, the heat is horable)Anyway if you can come up with a explaination I would love to here it and also vote for your Favorite Elvism I have seen this week.1-The lady i who was humping the leg of Asian Elvis2-The fact that they webcast people holding candles and crying ouside Graceland for those who could not travel.3-The fact we have a Graceland Baptist Chuch here in which the Minister looks and acts like Elvis from the pulpit (Hunka Hunka Burning Hell) Keep inmind that Baptist dont drink, dance, and are the ones who picketed all the elvis shows in the 60's4-The Aforementioned chuch has people lined up outside it waiting to be married as The head elvis sings "Can't help falling in love with you"5-a quote from a guy who lost the Elvis look alike contest " I don't see why me being black should conflict with me wining the contest"6-The female Elvis look alikes (BTY: the older rounder Elvis complete with real side-burns)7-The fact that I have wasted this much time of my work day writting this.Elvis WuffoKevinBTW:not a single flying Elvi-that I could understand Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeflir29 0 #3 August 16, 2001 Dude....Just stop at "Raeford's Hollywood Club" and have a 40. Remember, as the sign on the bathroom door says...."Absolutely No Pot Smoking" LMAO Although, my buddy says it's become the Hip hang out among the 21-25 crowd. You should have been there the night I went in (97) in a white Golf type shirt with a small Rebel flag on it. I was quite hammered when I put it on and it took me about ten minutes to figure out why everyone was staring at me......LMAO"I used to know a girl...She had two pirced nipples and a black tattoo"-EverclearClay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freaksister 0 #4 August 16, 2001 whew...I dunno...which Elvism to vote for!?!I would have said the lady humping the mini-Elvis 4'6" Asian (that's realistic! NOT!) but I think I'll go with the black dude! No wait...the females with sideburns...BWAHAHAHA!! I can't decide!!I got in an argument with my mom once when she was REALLY hammered b/c she said I had never heard an Elvis song...WTF? I grew up listening to those vinyl records OVER AND OVER while she and my aunt relived the glory days. They also had a thing for Neil Diamond.!! NEIL DIAMOND! My aunt named my cousin Neil....these are some weird people. Maybe I should name my future son "Dave Matthew _______insert last name here" since The DMB is my favorite group. Jeez!!"Elvis isn't dead, he's just on vacation..." SisI don't want the meaning of life, I want the experience of being alive! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
