Happy Elvis Day!

hris Roberts no longer works for this newspaper, but every year on this day, that former colleague somehow gets through the crack security of our isolated campus, and the motion detectors protecting my sanctum sanctorum itself, and leaves a jelly donut on my desk.

So it is that I never forget Elvis Presley's birthday -- which, as I'm sure you know, is today.

Yes, folks, it's time to take a breather from our earthly striving and try to get in touch with our essential Elvisness.

Elvis Presley was remembered here in Ireland as our national radio service RTE1 played his beautiful music on his birthday.

Did ever a vocalist's voice reach right around the globe like Elvis's did? and light up millions of peoples, lives like no other, before or since.
