Birthplace of Elvis. Hope everyone is safe

Not the first time for that proud city. One struck when Elvis was just a baby.

If the Presley family had stayed in Tupelo, maybe Elvis would have spent his whole life there, and instead of dying at 42 would now be a retired 73-year-old living in a trailer (having lost his house in a divorce) with his hunting dogs, and getting on the TV news only if a tornado demolished his trailer.
