The real shocking fact I learned is that Elvis never toured outside of the US, because Col. Tom Parker wasn't a US citizen and couldn't get a passport. (He was Dutch!)
Wow, I need to stop referring to "old, puffy Elvis" and change that to "puffy Elvis."
Also, when I went to Google "How old was Elvis when he died," once I typed out "How old was El", the autofill suggestions were, in order, "How old was Elvis when he died," "How old was Eliza Hamilton when she died," and "How old was Elton John when he died." Which made me need to check and see if Elton John was still alive. (SPOILER: he is.)
Which reminds me of how sad I am about Aretha Franklin, you guys.
I'm pretty much in denial about Aretha. She's eternal.

This morning there was a spill from an oil tanker trunk which shut down most of downtown for several hours. About an hour after the cleanup had wrapped up there, a massive retaining wall collapsed in almost the exact same spot, so Main St is shut down again at least through tomorrow's morning commute.
Either someone is trying to open a hellmouth, or we are under attack by a supervillain who seems oddly fixated on making it difficult for people in Ossining to get to the train station. Please send Superman and/or Buffy.
