Hogs and Heifers Bar- NYC 2010 |
It's been a long weekend and I feel the need to obliterate it with some alcohol. Not all was bad, or good, but it has been intense. Right now, I would give my last dollar to saddle up on a bar stool in this bar, pour a tall one on two ice cubes, and stare at the bottles on the wall for meaning.
On a different note. I am almost the same age as Elvis when he died at 42. I am about to the age where I am older than all of those that dies too young. MLK was 39. RFK - 42. JFK 36. It wont be long before I start seeing friends dying and not being shocked that it happened at this age.
Until then, I am understanding what Elvis was singing about in this classic. I appreciate his voice and talent more as I grow older and soon, I hope but shouldn't assume, I will have outlived him.
A much lighter version of it.
Thank you for the video tribute to Elvis Presley. His heart and soul have touched me for decades. It's interesting you thought about your age in this context today. I just posted on age and numbers, too.
