Thai Soup & Elvis Credentials

November 12, 2006, Sunday morning ....all of my projects have stalled...arrgghh...I can't do anything about stalled projects, it will be easier pushing string...well, the good news is Pynchon has a new book coming out soon...and today I'm finally going to teach myself how to make Tom Yum Koong (Hot and Sour Thai soup w/ prawns)...I once read a gumbo recipe that required listening to a Neville Brothers album to get the gumbo timing right....what music goes with learning to make Tom Yum? Hmmm...well, I gotta believe Elvis Costello goes with everything...((caution:Elvis to Elvis segue ahead))....which of course reminds me of the lyrics from the Mojo Nixon song...

Elvis is everywhere, man!
He's in everything.
He's in everybody.

Elvis is in your jeans.
He's in your cheesburgers.
Elvis is in Nutty Buddies!
Elvis is in your mom!
He's in everybody.

He's in the young, the old,
the fat, the skinny,
the white, the black
the brown and the blue
people got Elvis in them too.

Elvis is in everybody out there.
Everybody's got Elvis in them.
Everybody except one person that is,
Yeah, one person!
The evil opposite of Elvis,
The Anti-Elvis!
Anti-Elvis got no Elvis in him,
Lemme tell ya.

Michael J. Fox has no Elvis in him.

...poor Michael J. Fox...I think he has earned his Elvis credentials, serious Elvis credentials...Rush Limbaugh is now the anti-Elvis...tag, your it Rush...
