1. What’s your favorite Elvis song?

I have a lot favorite Elvis songs, but if I go according to my list of songs for every year since my birth, then my go to Elvis track is "Jailhouse Rock". The songs catches the essence of early rock n roll, and Elvis was at his peak in his early years.

Top 5 Elvis songs (revised September 2025)

1. Jailhouse Rock
2. Blue Suede Shoes
3. I Gotta Know
4. Ku'uipo
5. It's Now of Never 

2. When did you last wear something Pink?

I'm a guy and I don't wear any Pink. If I did it probably is very long ago and I don't remember it.

3. What’s the most intereSting thing you learned last week?

Charlie Kirk made contingency plans for his succession long before he was brutally shot and killed.  His organization Turning Point USA will continue and his message will spread. News of his death was a total Sting for me. So young. He could have been elected President of the U.S. as early as the mid 2030s.

4. When did you last treat someone awFlea (or when were you last treated awFlea)?

It was a while back, but the people at the UPS store had gawd awful service at the Makaloa Street location. I vow never to go back there ever. Now if I need to deal with UPS I go to the Downtown location.AFLEA.... hmmm...

5. Which notable people do you Cher a name or birthday with?

If I told you this I would have to reveal my birthday which I prefer to keep confidential.  However I will say one of the cast members of the old ABC TV series China Beach has the same birthday as me.

• ELVIS - Jailhouse Rock
• PINK - Get The Party Started
• STING - Fields of Gold
• FLEA - Give It Away, Give It Away (Red Hot Chili Peppers)
• CHER - Half Breed

I don't know if we had to figure something out with these words. So I just matched it up with my favorite songs by these people.
