Elvis Presley is one of America’s most recognized
cultural icons, and the undisputed “King of Rock and
Roll” or more simply, “The King”. Elvis was born January 8, 1935 from humble beginnings and lived until
1977. In his short life (only 42 years), Elvis launched the
rock and roll revolution with his commanding voice and
strong, charismatic stage presence. His iconic hipshaking became a symbol of liberation from the America
of the 1950’s.
Elvis’s music has remained popular. Years after his
death, Elvis’s roll as a cultural icon has continued to
grow and in 1986 he was one of the first ten performers
inducted into the Rock and Roll hall of fame. Millions of
fans from all over the world have come to pay their respects to The King of Rock and Roll at his Graceland
mansion and still enjoy his music. Below are the Rock
and Roll Hall of Fame’s ten essential Elvis Presley
songs.
1.“That’s All Right” 1954
2.“Mystery Train” 1955
3.“Heartbreak Hotel” 1956
4.“Don’t Be Cruel”, 1956
5.“Jailhouse Rock”, 1957
6.“Viva Las Vegas”, 1964
7.“How Great Thou Art”, 1967

1.
The day begins with a morning worship
This tradition was started by Franklin D. Roosevelt
in 1933 and continued since.
2. The President and President Elect arrive together
This began in 1937 with Roosevelt and Van Buren
and signifies a peaceful transition of power. The
Vice President and Vice President Elect now also
arrive together.
3. Inauguration Day used to be March 4th
When messages were carried by horse, it took a
long time to tally and report votes. With faster
technology, the date moved up to January 20th.
Franklin D. Roosevelt was both the last president
to be sworn in on March 4th (1933) and first to the
first to take office on January 20th (1937)
4. Vice Presidents used to have separate swearing in
ceremonies.
Now they are held together and the Vice President
is
sworn in first.
5. Presidential Inaugurations used to happen inside
until a fight about a chair
The swearing in ceremony was originally indoors,
held in the House and Senate chambers. In 1817,
for Monroe’s scheduled inauguration, an argument
broke out between the House and Senate over
whose chairs would be used. Monroe eventually
got fed up and delivered his speech outdoors.
6. The president with the longest Inaugural address
had the shortest presidency.
Despite the snowstorm on William Henry
Harrison’s Inauguration day, he insisted on holding
the ceremony outdoors and gave a nearly two hour
speech (8,445 words) speech, with no coat, hat, or
gloves. He died 31 days later of pneumonia.
7. The shortest Inaugural address was given by
George Washington
Washington’s second term speech was 135 words.
9. Only one woman has sworn in a president
U.S. District Judge Sarah T. Hughes swore in
President Lyndon B. Johnson on board the Air
Force One in 1963 after the assassination of
President John F. Kennedy.
10. Andrew Johnson showed up drunk to his Vice
Presidential Inauguration
Johnson had been sick for several week. He drank a
few glasses of whiskey to get him through the day.
After he took oath, he delivered a rambling,
incoherent speech and was eventually pulled of the
podium my his coattails.

This holiday season is a time of remembrance for
me. The magazine “Reminisce” had a Christmas
issue, and that had brought some warm memories. Maybe the magic of Chrismas is really for
children. But the spriti of the season always
touches the child-like part of me.
Some memories can bring a lot of comfort.
Looking back, like everyone, I’ve made choices,
good or bad., but it all seems to have a pattern
and purpose. Old friends move on, but that only
makes room for new ones. Circumstances
change, but that allows for new experiences. So I
try to keep the attitude of “what’s next?”
Remembrance is only a part of it for me. I’m
fascinated by technology. In a way, I know what
my grandfather must have felt. He grew up in a
world of horse drawn wagons and kerosene
lamps and then came to know cars, electricity
and indoor plumbing. He must have been bemused by it all. I feel the same in watching people carrying phones and taking pictures with
them. It’s a world I’m part of but somehow
seems to have passed me by.
That’s all right. It’s part of life now that
older folks wonder at things younger folks take
for granted. It’s the pace of technological change
that so impresses me. Every improvement is
built on the last, but it’s happening so quickly. It
seems I just get used to a product when it’s improved and different from the old. Interesting
times indeed.
I like to read the “Letters to the Editor” in
the Lodi News Sentinel. Lots of different opinions there. U had to laugh at one from a Trump
supporter, “It’s done. Get over it.” Really? All the
problems will be solved and the country set on
the right course now? Somehow I doubt it.
Trymp will find that the world is a complex
place, that decisions can have consequences far
different than intended, and he won’t have as
much of a free hand as he seems to think.
Like any successful politician, Trump has
said whatever he needs to say to be elected. People tend to take those parts that agree with them
and disregard the rest. During the campaign, he
accused Hillary of being to much of a friend to
Wall Street for her frequent talks there, now he
staffs much of his cabinet with the executives
from Wall Street. It’s probably the wealthiest
cabinet ever assembled. Who knows. Maybe he
feels more comfortable around others of his
kind. Doesn’t matter. He’s our president. One of
the things this past year has brought is the stirring of my interest in politics again. Like many
others, I’ll be watching.
Over the Christmas weekend, I had a
dream that touched me so much I had to write it
down as soon as I woke.
Two elderly men, one black and one white,
sat talking after a luncheon at the organization
to which they both belonged. They’d known
each other since childhood. One had been the
servant of the other through the years leading to
the civil war and after. The white man said, “I
loved by what I was born into and what I was
taught. I never meant to do you an y harm. Wasn’t that fair?”
“No,” the black man said. “It wasn’t fair,
but I’m man enough to let God sort that out.”
I don’t know what if it’s a stor long forgotten or something that the dreaming mind gave
me, but it fits right in with my thinking. Whatever the New Year brings, fair or not, let God
sort it out.
All my Best,
Jim
