What Elvis Said
"I've watched my audiences, and I've listened to them, and I know we’re all getting something out of our system, and none of us knows what it is. The important thing is we're gettin' rid of it and nobody's gettin' hurt."
"If you really want to please me, search for God and the truth."
Real Life Lessons from The King
This book is what I learned from Elvis on - you guessed it - my own personal quest for health and happiness. Here's the official description from my publisher:
At the book’s heart, Health and Happiness Elvis Style is an in-depth look at what we can learn from Elvis Presley’s life and death, good and bad. It’s put it in plain southern language, the way he would have wanted. The lessons are designed to be upbeat and meaningful yet fun and quotable.
Opening the book to any page to finds inspirational nuggets of the King’s wisdom. Learn to love and accept yourself, Elvis suggests. Be careful whom you trust and don’t forget to take time to be nice to others. Stand up for what you believe in, and always say “yes ma’am” and “thank you very much.”

(Thanks, Sis!)
He's a really big, really nice dude. This was right after his interview on Sirius Elvis Radio on Friday, 1/9/09. I swear, I think he's 6'5". And his presence is just as "big" as it is on screen. Oh, and he was wearing Birkenstock Bostons.
