I was in my early teens when Elvis first hit it big. Being a creature of the herd, the snobby herd, I remember saying to my dad, "What a hick." And my dad answering, "No. Listen. This fellow can sing." And ya know? my dad was right. RIP, Elvis.

Jay: You do know Elvis is dead, right?
Kay: No, Elvis is not dead. He just went home.
