    I can’t even look at this picture…we need two volunteers, one with some sandpaper and one with a dodgy cellphone to get the whole thing for YouTube. We’ll be heroes, I tell you, heroes.

    At first sight it looks like a digital image.

    @ avist

    All I want to see is if the head ever does catch fire that you see Elvis’s skull underneath. ;)

    I wonder if David Mach is his real name? One more letter and it would really be perfect…

    @Tim, truly a thought from someone that has lived in Miami long enough. Bro!

    LOL. I didn’t think about the burning thing but now that I am reading all of this, I’m liking the idea… a lot. And it’s dangerous to get a housewife with pyro tendencies thinking about this sort of thing.

    Burning it would be fitting; in his later years Elvis smelled a lot like burnt sulfur.

    Can’t we let this bloke rest in piece???

    Ok, ok, if you insist….if you know what caused his heart attack then you know this statue has more chance of going *fwoosh* than his farts.
