    Yes, the short fringe suit too. I just love those long tassels whipping around his legs.....really sexy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey..that's OK, cause I had him all to myself the next week in Ft. Worth, Texas.
    Well...if no one else will break it to you...I will! You actually didn't have him all to himself...we just let you think you did.

    That dang Elvis......sounds like he told the same ol' story to every one of us!

    but it would have been a crackup to hear him say...

    "My scarf's gone a missin' and my belt's upside down...those gals what ya' gonna do?!?!
    Ahhh...he never did quite know what to do with me! Good thing I knew exactly what to do with him...otherwise, our love life would have been as boring as he said his and Rosanne's was.

    Daddy, I miss you more every day. You will always be my hero..

    He always left Texas with a smile on his face, and I always knew why. I loved it when he would sing The Yellow Rose of Texas......she's the only gal for me. I knew exactly who "ROSE" really was.

    Thanks. A pen pal of mine by the name of Patricia Ann Cervone sent me that picture years and years ago - I was wondering if you got it from her. Anyone know her???? She lived in Long Island.

    Upside down on purpose

    Found out Elvis took the belt off during the concert and then put it on at the end upside down - on purpose. He did that on occassion is what I read.

    Elvis dropped the belt to the stage when doing the beginning of "Hound Dog" he then put it back on again later in the show. On this occasion he put it on upside down, by mistake.

    I totally agree. The short fringe will forever be my favorite jumpsuit...and those macrame' belts were very sexy in their own special way, too. I liked the simpler jumpsuits as they let the star inside them SHINE instead of trying to compete with his glory.

    I will never forget you Rosanne.
