Better get used to. This will be bigger than Elvis...

In Reply to: Isn't there anything else happening to talk about? - just asking...
and people still talk about Elvis, tour Graceland, and celebrate his birth/death every year. My gosh, MJ is the greatest, most iconic star that ever lived and he hasn't even been buried yet.

Elvis on AI
Yes - i was in tears. I think that this was a TV historical moment, as well as a moment in music history. Someone on another board said that this segment had been recorded last week and that sanjaya was still on when the idols came up to do backup - I've watched it over and over on youtube, and I do not see him, but maybe so. Even the way this was put together was interesting. I think that it might have had even more of an impact, though, had it just been Elvis alone singing without Celine, but it was a very good performance.
Elvis -Where were You
I was 12-years-old, standing in the living room behind the couch while my mom and dad were intensely staring at the t.v. and my dad was crying. He was always playing the guitar and dressed in black. I have a picture of my dad dressed in black sitting on a chair while he is playing his electric guitar with the amps beside him on the floor, while he was in the Air Force. My kids who are now 12 and 13 are like "WHO IS ELVIS? So sad...
Yep, just saw him and Elvis together

It's going to be like Elvis
People will still think they've seen him and that he's still alive. To me, I'm sure he's dead. Very sad, but I really don't think he'd fake something like this, but that's just me. They did identify the person that made the 911 call. They said it was his doctor.
anyone see a resemblance to Elvis?

I was nine when Elvis died,
but it still had quite an impact on me, and I remember, as do most, where I was when I heard the sad news. I was never one to watch the royal family very much, but I must say that I felt devastated to hear of the tragedy when Princess Diana was killed, and had the same sort of feeling when John Denver went home.
I was about the same age when Elvis died...sm
I remember listening to his funeral on my radio, which at that age it still strikes me as odd as I probably was not a fan of his music. Just one of those moments in history, I guess.
I also remember getting up at 6:00 a.m. to watch Princess Diana get married, and I remember when she died, I was kind of embarrassed at how impacted I was by that. I guess somehow maybe I wanted to be a princess even in my adult years.
Don't remember John Denver so much but anyone a Chris Ledoux fan?
Happy Birthday, Elvis
The beagle next door is howling nonstop. Guess Elvis' spirit must have seized him. After all, we're only about 250 miles from Tupelo! Before I know it, I'll be transcribing the lyrics to "You Ain't Nothing But a Hound Dog."
Yep Happy Birthday Elvis!!!.....nm
Ya know....I like the bigger ones
because I like so many different kinds of music. I've got them all broken down by genre and artists. I can either listen to a specific genre or listen to a specific artist. However, most of the time I just put it on songs and put it on shuffle and I get a wide range of mix throughout the day. I don't know that I could use one of those small shuffle ones because it just wouldn't hold enough songs for me. I've got almost 2K songs on mine and I haven't even made a dent in DH and I's CDs.
Yes, we called him 'gay Elvis' before we figured out

Perhaps the bigger question is this....sm
Why does the guy feel he has to mow his lawn at 8:30 at night? I don't know about the city you live in, but in my city we have a noise/nuisance ordinance. And it covers more than just barking dogs.
Perhaps New Englander needs to check out her local noise ordinances. I have used it before and it works. It got a drug house torn down, a neighbor had to give up his pit bulls, and it got the city out to our street to plow more than one time during the winter. And I live in Michigan.
New Englander, you have my sympathy.
Was anyone else amazed when Celine Dion sang with Elvis?
I thought that was simply incredible! A little hard to explain to my daughter though that that was Elvis and he died many years ago!
30th Anniversary of Elvis' Death this week
I know some of you weren't even born or were toddlers, but for us older folks, I was just curious where you were when you heard the news that Elvis had died.
I was working in a very small factory pasting crystals in a base for radios (gee - what a job that was!) making $1.85 an hour and that was with shift differential. Anyway, I was working 2nd shift & heard the news just as I pulled into the parking lot. My supervisor cried all night and the plant manager played Elvis albums on the overhead speaker all night.
Just thought it would be interesting to see where everybody was.
Look at the bigger picture down the road.....

i accidentally jerked a bigger one
off when it got hung in my bath poof -- ouch! but couldn't quite bring myself to snip the others off.
How to get print to stay bigger
When I am in a report or just on the internet, my print is very small. Now I know how to zoom in or use my control and mouse to get the print bigger- for that particular page but then it reverts down to hardly can read when I get off that particular page. I would like to have bigger print for all pages or I am gonna have to get a seeing eye dog before long. Husband has a change zoom level on his and his print stays same for all he looks at. Why cannot I have the same?? Thanks.
Well the USGS says it was a 5.6 - bigger than I thought!
Centered in the Alum Rock area (hills east of San Jose), depth of about 5 miles. Most likely on the Calaveras Fault.
Looks like you guys need a bigger chair!
Boy, have they settled right in or what?! That is absolutely wonderful! You guys must be so happy!
I think even a bigger one. I still trust Obama..
It is said that M wears the pants at home and I bet that she reminds him every day that she gave up her job for him!

lol, I hear you...I've only gotten a bit bigger as I'm getting older
and with the right underwire bra and a couple of those chicken cutlet-looking fake things, I can actually even get some cleavage! Woo-Hoo! lol
Be the bigger person and forgive! Course my opinion
What about soccer? Bigger, more brightly-colored - (sm)
ball, and less chance of major injuries. I think running & kicking is more natural & healthy for kids than the pounding football would give them. Especially at that age, and if, as you said, the coach is running them into the ground and dissolving them to tears just during the "conditioning" process. Seems kinda' brutal for any 7-year-old, regardless of eyesight.
I think the Senate has bigger problems on its hands than
If Florida is so concerned about its workers being on drugs, perhaps it should do a better job of patrolling its own borders, and stemming the massive flow of drugs that comes onshore there every single day.

I've always let my kids keep messy rms as long as floor was clear & no food was in room. Bigger

Bigger issue - a 16 year old living withi a 29 year old and liability
Are you still not responsible for him until he is 18, how can he tell you where he will live? Unless he emancipates himself and he does something wrong, can they go against you since you are his mother and legally responsible for him? I worry more about him living with a 29 year old sister rather than returning a house key to me that is a bigger issue.
