    2) Morris the Cat
    3) I'll be interested to hear the answer for this one, as I think that the remix of "A Little Less Conversation" is certainly Elvis' most popular posthumous recording.

  • Still waiting for your source for #3...

  • It was actually from a Trivia website. So I guess take that for what it's worth, or with a grain of salt or some other cliche'.

  • What happened to the word funner?

    By Blogger Anna, at 7:56 AM  

  • Someone objected to it so I changed it rather than getting into a silly argument about it.

    By Blogger DeNirogator, at 8:08 AM  

  • Well, you've ruined the whole blog for me now.

  • What would your position in the silly argument have been?

    By Anonymous Anonymous, at 8:26 AM  

  • (sigh) If I state my position then it will be continuing the silly argument that doesn't need to occur.

    Fine. There are numerous times when people speak in what they know is improper grammar or use words that they know do not actually exist. Like for example, "conversasiate" or something of the like.

    If I was writing a novel or newspaper article, I wouldn't do that. Here, who cares?

  • So instead of taking that bold, brave stance you decided to cave in and censor the whole thing?

    By Anonymous Anonymous, at 8:35 AM  

  • Correct. It is not that important to fight about. I could care less. So yes, I will appease on occasion when the benefits outweigh the alternative.
