It is Elvis’ birthday.

You know what that means.


Elvis Is Everywhere, The Pleasure Barons

In its way, this song says a lot about our technological development. Twenty years ago you could pretty much only find a version of this song by using a specialized novelty cassette-album vendor. Ten years ago my then-girlfriend, now-wife bought me an album with this song by using that newfangled ‘Amazon’ service. Today, the trick in listening to it is in deciding which version that you like the best.

Our technological development rocks on toast, in other words.
