Postage Stamp of the Week: Elvis

Had a bloated, doped-up Elvis not died on his bathroom's shag carpet, gold pajama bottoms around his ankles while face-down in his own vomit, he would've turned 73 this Tuesday.

Two years ago, upon the King's 71st birthday, I wrote about Elvis in Seattle (prompting many amusing comments). Then last year I wrote this, which nobody read.

Anyhoo, the Postal Service issued the above stamp in 1993, and I issued the stamp below in 1994.

Smells like blue suede shoes.
