"So Elvis. Can you tell the folks at home tonight what
it's like to be dead?"
|
| Elvis |
"It's kind of like when you go to sleep only you don't wake
up. Or have you ever watched those Saturday morning cooking shows on PBS?
That's real similar to being dead." |
| Larry King |
"I see. So Elvis, did you have to spend any time in
Purgatory or Limbo or anything like that?"
|
| Elvis |
"You know Larry, the only big
trouble I've ever been in was when I was stealing eggs when I was little tike. They made
me spend three weeks in a sort of Purgatory listening to Pat Boone records just for that.
And I got two extra month's of suffering, because of that Charro! movie I made." |
| Larry King |
"Was it painful in purgatory?" |
| Elvis |
"A well'a bless my soul. I said what'sa
wrong with me? I'm was itchin' like a man on a fuzzy tree. It was like that
Larry. I just kept thinking, no more 'Viva Las Vegas' for me." |
| Larry King |
"Your so funny Elvis. Have you seen anybody famous on
the other side. You know like Osama bin Laden." |
| Elvis |
"No. Not yet anyway. But then again, I usually
don't hang out with the demon possessed pedophiles." [Laughter] |
| Larry King |
"So Elvis, what do you miss most from your earth bound
days?"
|
| Elvis |
"I miss good food like hog jowls,
pork chops, Cheese Wiz, pizza and country ham, creamed potatoes, stuff like that. Redeye
gravy. It comes from ham, bacon, stuff like that. It's all the grease that you fry it in.
I used to eat a lot of Jell-O. Fruit Jell-O. Mm mm mm, mm, yay, yay, yay. Man
those were the days." |
| Larry King |
"So Elvis do you like watch CNN up there? I mean what do
you think about this baseball strike business?" |
| Elvis |
"I thought the All Star Game sucked. I mean how could
they let the game end in a tie?" |
| Larry King |
"Well Elvis thanks for allowing us to do this interview.
I have always said that you are the greatest person that ever lived, but I say that
about all my guests. [Giggle] Anyway, folks stay tuned and we will be right
back with an interview with Abraham Lincoln as soon as I change Dionne's channel. [Yuck.
Yuck.] |
