You're a real gem darlin! Sheesh! I wonder what God would have thought of your statement? (referring to your NUKE MECCA comment!) If you don't like Elvis, fine! Leave everyone else that does alone.

Nothing wrong with nuking mecca........telling them you will do it if we are attacked is great......if it will keep them from a terrorist attack on say..... GRACELAND!!!!

And I'm just saying that Elvis was a very flawed very troubled person.....just as everybody else is.

My problem is with the absolute adoration of this individual who was nothing more than a drug addicted user of women.

He was not someone to be looked up to...but pitied.

I don't look up to many folks. First of all, a lot of folks are shorter than I. Second, I can admire the man for what he accomplished because he had a God given ability. How he chose to use or abuse it was not up to me or you.

I personally wouldn't nuke Mecca. I guess I always have this feeling that if you NUKE something, many innocent folks are going to die. Especially those that are close allies of America --- like Israel.

Thanks for your opinions. I may not entirely agree, but I agree you have the right to say it.

Have you seen anyone here celebrating (or trying to emulate) Elvis' lifestyle?

We're showing an appreciation for his music! Big difference!

There is one "lifestyle" decision we do celebrate: Elvis was a member of our military and he served proudly.

"He was not someone to be looked up to.."

Radioactive-That is true -of course that is unless you like music, follow the history of music, enjoy music or are influenced by music. Surely the title "Music Dedication" told you may be on a thread which holds little interested to you. Unless you are just looking for a bit of the flame, eh?

Here is a guy that really influenced music...I think you should like this little tune:

HIT THE ROAD JACK!

Hey RaidoA- do as Rays says!!! Kay?
