| 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.
