Elvis Lives . . . just an anagram or is he out there?
August 15th 2007 00:12
Sure ‘Lives’ is an anagram of Elvis – but don’t pay any attention to this piece of joviality – it’s purely an attention grabber.
Of course then there’s the John Burrow’s theory – where a man calling himself same (and who bore a striking resemblance to the King – apparently purchased airline tickets to Buenos Aires under Elvis’ pseudonym – but hey – we all know this is just ‘tripe’.
Then there’s the pallava about the wax body in the coffin and reports that people saw beads of sweat on the body in the casket after the air conditioning had broken down on the day.
We all know dead bodies don't sweat - your glands are completely shut off, and embalming fluid is in your body.
You’ll often hear the Elvis lives because - the spelling mistake on his gravestone - argument, don’t believe it.
There’s the allegation that Elvis was found reading the Shroud of Turin when he was discovered on the bathroom floor unconscious – yet the book wasn’t publicly realeased for another 12 months. Hey celebs get advance copies – don’t they?
Add the Elvis is in the witness protection program yarns, the gold bullion in the coffin tale, the Col. Tom Parker, quote in a press conference shortly after Elvis’ death that ‘Elvis didn’t die - the body did and the ‘revealation and that new Elvis recordings emerged with songs from the 90's in 2002 – and you can understand why 95 per cent of the world pays homage to the legend this week.
And five per cent still believe
Elvis - if you're out there - give me a call.
Thankyou, thankyou very much. . . .
