The Long Shadow of the Pelvis

“Of course I don’t like to be called Elvis the Pelvis. It’s one of the most childish expressions I’ve ever heard coming from an adult. Elvis the Pelvis. But if they want to call me that, there’s nothing I can do about it, so I just have to accept it.”
Elvis Presley, 1956

I hope you’re still working on accepting it, Elvis, wherever you are. Because the world remembers. Clearly.

    There was an Elvis the Pelvis reference on last night’s episode of “New Girl.” Nope, no escaping that silly nickname, Elvis dear. ;-)

    Sheila…..I can personally comisserate with Elvis….over the ‘Pelvis’ thing…..though only in my very little world…do I have to be reminded of ….’Clem Kaddlehopper’ among other names!! But as your good friend once said………..”Elvis is like an aircraft carrier…..he is ………..big enough….to handle anything”! I think that is a close quote, if memory serves me right. Clementine
