graceland

We drove to Graceland a few years back. J was living on Euclid; I'm still where I was then. Don't think it doesn't bother me. Anyway, we didn't expect to see Elvis. We're not like that. But pictures don't lie right? So you see it for yourself. There's me, J and Elvis right there all thogether in his car. Crazy.

The place was impressive. The whole house seems like it's cocooned in shag carpet; floor, wall and ceiling. We saw no vaccuum cleaners however. I was looking. My favourite part was the shooting range. You could put your fingers in the bullet holes that had been shot outside the target area. There were alot of these holes. I thought drunk elvis shooting off revolvers with richard nixon. We didn't go in the airplane (the 'Lisa Marie') but we did buy special chocolates from the gift shop. And magnets.

There's also the TCB plane: Takin'Care of Business (with bad, child-like rendering of a lightning bolt). Elvis was inspired by Bachman Turner Overdrive (BTO). If anyone were to ask me, I'd say, "Randy Bachman is underrated musical genius."
