Out of the Blue

As loony mentioned yesterday it was Frans' birthday, although he failed to note that yesterday is also the 65th birthday of Elvis Presley, which inspires me to offer the king some well-wishes on the occasion, wherever he might be. This is an interesting coincidence, since Frans' Dutch homeland seems to be the type of place that might appeal to Elvis, with Amsterdam's coffee shops, window shopping for companionship, and, of course, all those French fry stands all seeming to fit in. My suspicions aroused, I got out the pen and paper, and sure enough, Frans P. de Vries is actually an anagram for Ervis Pransdf, which of course, is how Elvis Presley sounds when you say it with a mouthful of peanut-butter and banana sandwich, which is Elvis' favorite food. Coincidence? I can't see how it could be.

Oh, by the way, when I said a while back that I was sure I would make up for a string of Out of the Blues about servers and stuff here that I would make an extra rambling update to make up for it one day, so don't say I don't give fair warning.

RIP Don Martin. Thanks Randy Sims.

Link of the Day: The Empty Bowl. Thanks Uncle Duke.
Story of the Day: Police say Florida man swallowed 55 crack pipes. Thanks GreenMarine and Shawn Wallis. No word if this actually qualifies as a Guinness world record or anything.
