Thank you very much: The Kings, an Elvis Presley cover band based in Snohomish County, is promoting an ice cream inspired by Elvis and available at a Seattle shop. Memphis King features peanut butter, bananas and chocolate-covered bacon.
We're willing to try it, but we're bringing along our Fat Elvis sequined jumpsuit.
Drop the Marlboro, Mr. President: Turns out Barack Obama isn't perfect; he admits to bumming a cigarette a couple of times during the presidential campaign. But Obama vows he won't light up in the White House.
He may not have a choice. Michelle Obama has instructed the Secret Service to wrestle the known killers to the ground on sight.
I'll take "Really Potent Potables" for $400, Alex: Some scientists say the use of brain-boosting drugs, such as Ritalin, should be expanded to adults who could use a little help with their memories.
It sounds like a good idea until you consider the unintended consequences: Do you really want to see "Jeopardy" contestants compelled to produce urine samples to prove they weren't hopped up on Adderall?
