Elvis Presley died 28 years ago today. If Elvis were still alive, he would be 70 now - around the waist.
He'd probably be doing commercials for Ultra Slim-Fast.
And on late-night TV, he'd be selling his genuine Elvis Bellybouncer -- and patented blue suede hair.

Elvis has been reported alive so many times, he's the first rock singer to become a living legend after he died.

Elvis died in 1977 on Madonna's 17th birthday, but she had nothing to do with it.

The U.S. and Canada signed the first international migratory bird treaty on this day in 1916. This treaty was really for the birds. Under the agreement, birds can cross the U.S.-Canadian border anytime they want to without going through customs -- as long as they promise not to sell anything in Canada.

Bernard MacFadden was born on this day in 1868. MacFadden published True Stories and True Romances magazines and was one of history's greatest physical fitness nuts. He made a parachute jump on his 84th birthday. He did die at age 87, but in perfect health.
