The day I walked around Philadelphia holding a sign that said—READ MY BLOG—The story of how my blog got popular.

Philadelphia Elvis Fest. An Elvis impersonation contest!! The best Elvis goes to Memphis to compete for the title of Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist!

You know what’s rare? When you inadvertently avoid making an ass of yourself.
