Jailhouse Rock

Aug 18, 2007 | Posted by: roboblogger

Loving him tender

Full story: The Flint Journal

I remember going to see my first Elvis impersonator with my mom when I was 9 or 10, and it was great, even though I wish I could have seen him in concert. It's definitely like he's a part of the family. Elvis movie marathon : Turner Classic Movies is showing Presley flicks all day, featuring "Jailhouse Rock" at 8 p.m. and "Viva Las Vegas" at 10 p.m. "Elvis, by the Presleys" : A two-hour retrospective is hosted ... via The Flint Journal

Elvis was generous to a fault,
and deserved a lot better than what he got.
He continues to bring, joy, happiness
and inspiration to millions.
The majestic sound of his intoxicating,
seductive, powerful voice, never left him.
On his darkest day, Elvis was better than
all of them, on their best day.

They treated Elvis like a circus animal,
to enrich themselves, and pushed him to
perform, when it was clear to a 2 year old,
that he was very ill and in no shape.

On some of his videos,
Elvis looks frightened,
tired, exhausted.

I cannot believe the USA government allowed
a Dutch illegal alien, to control the life,
of America's one and only American Idol.

Priscilla Presley, continues to use the Presley,
name to go on television and reveal even more
of her life with Elvis, knowing what a private
person he was.

The 40 Million that the Elvis Presley estate
is said to generate yearly, does nothing for
Elvis Presley.

Only the parasites are still scooping up the cash.

Elvis was not served well, by those near and
dear to him, they used him and continue to do
so till this day.
The parasites continue to feed off Elvis's corpse,
while complaining about him.
Larry King interviews, lecture tours,
books, all based on their relationship with
Elvis Presley.
He was surrounded by vultures,
that loved the jingle of the cash register,
generated by his punishing concert schedule.
There should be a USA congressional investigation,
into the life of Elvis Presley, especially
the people that surrounded him towards the
end of his life.

No one should ever say ALL....some or many...are more appropriate words to use when discussing people around ELVIS who took advantage. It isn't fair to lump EVERYONE in the same catagory.

Ofcourse not all. But when speaking about Elvis sometimes the ALL means most of them. Just maybe two or three who really cared much more??

This IS absolutely true without a doubt- And that too wanting more and more it still is'nt enough!!
It must really grieve Elvis to see the fanfair that it has become and at what a cost!

No, you called me dumb because you said I couldn't make a link. Remember? I think maybe this time, you have more ammunition.

Hi Molly NO, not ALL Molly and ESP. Not Billy! Molly actually there must have been a time these very guys who are the MM defnitely have cared for him afterall he WAS close to them and wanted them around him. But gradually it turned to bitterness, hate and jealousy and Anger! The unthinkable was done and.... so they formed a joint family...tho seperated from Pricilla the sole intention was.....RAKE IN THE CASH EVEN IF BE ON ELVIS' CORPSE.....But then.... very few got the money and fame that they so longed for...But not a patch to Prisssssss!

Molly no one can say Billy was not worth every penny that Elvis would have loved to have left him. He was a wonderful and faithful friend!!

Yep... it is hurtful to those who really loved and cared for Elvis in his last days and he trusted them! Any wonder why Billy is'nt in Pricilla's good books altho he was the last person to be with Elvis?
Tell me when this thread is updated!

Daily Horoscope for January 6

Cancer

You could struggle to display your feelings and emotions at the moment. Being so sensitive, the smallest things could hurt your feelings, but no one else is likely to realise since you retreat into your shell at these times. This will not be a conscious decision, and you'll feel frustrated at your inability to explain the hurt you suffer.
