When Linda mentioned that she is a fan of "The King", I knew exactly the picture that I would take one day. Well, today was that day! As a history teacher I have the pleasure of exploring all different time periods in American History. The Roaring Twenties was a decade I would most enjoy traveling back in time to experience; however, the 1950s/60s is a very close second! What Elvis meant to a generation of young and old alike is unmeasurable. His energy, his moves, his lyrics and his lifestyle kept Americans buying records and glued to TV. They also went out in large numbers to see his movies! Did you know that Elvis flirted with Mary Tyler Moore and she turned him down? Now, she says, that is one regret from her past! Funny, but the point is that Elvis was larger than life to many. Linda, since you enjoy his music so much, here is your dedication!

Okay...I have to know...how are you getting all these pictures?! Where are they coming from? I love the tributes:)
Very awesome, thank you much! I'd like to know where you're getting the pictures, too. Great idea, and at least it gives you material for 5 days. Lucky you.
5 days of material.
i am also jealous:)
linda,elvis??????hmmmmmmmmm:)
Clever idea....and wonderful tribute! I just have a question for all Elvis fans: why is it that so many images, Elvis look-a-likes, etc., all portray Elvis in the later years? Just curious. Thanks, Steve, for a fun post!
