This thread is dedicated to the Topic heading. 

Everyone is invited to participate, or start their own "quiz." It would be polite to keep things organized by waiting until an active contest has been completed.

So rule one: Every contest or quiz should have a designated "end"..time limit.

Rule two:  Whomever initiates a contest/quiz has to moderate and be judge and jury over the results, answers, and declare "winners" which will be a final close to each entry section.

The next post will be my "promised" quiz on the topic of Elvis

..hope everyone has a great time.

1.  Viva Las Vegas

2. DOH! I know that one, but it escapes me.

3. same as number two.

Lengo <-- one hunka hunka burnin' love!   

p.s Have you seen the movie "Elvis has left the building"?  It stars Kim Bassinger.  This is ONE FUNNY MOVIE!  If you haven't seen this box office sleeper, you should!  Kim is a Pink Lady sales rep (not to be confused with Mary Kay Cosmetics because "they're more salmon colored", lol. She's on her way to a convention in Las Vegas, at the same time that numerous Elvis Impersonators are heading to their convention in Vegas. She keeps encountering them on her road trip, and they die by coincidence.  She believes it's her fault.  The fun comes when you mix a Mary Kay look-alile sales rep with Elvis Impersonators, along with great tunes by Elvis, and bad acting by Bassinger and everyone else. It is pure CAMP, and totally, I mean totally funny!

Go to imdb.com to find out more about it.

I'm surprised you like "It's Now or Never". Sounds like pushy macho stuff to me.

Elvis did a lot of nice gospel stuff, but my memory is not good enuf to remember the names.

LOL. This one is kinda funny!

"Tomorrow will be too late.....
"It's now or never.....
"My love won't wait!"

he he, that's pretty good Lengo.   

Except for a couple things, macho men don't need Viagra and
Elvis was years before Viagra.

But I got a kick out of your post, Taz
