I remember buying the 45 of Heartbreak Hotel at Daylight Market back when it came out.  I had most of those early 45s and EPs and liked them quite a bit.

DR Druxy,
How interesting that you were in "It Happened at the World's Fair".  What part did you play?

I was an extra...my first "professional" job.  I got paid $10 + a box lunch.

I am very visible (twice) in the scene where little Kurt Russell kicks Elvis in the shins.

Oy!  (Yes, another Oy!  And why not, I ask you?  Why the hell not?)

So now I suppose we're going to have to examine every frame for the photographic evidence?   :)

No need.  If you get a copy of my 2nd memoir (LIFE, LIBERTY & THE PURSUIT OF HOLLYWOOD), which will be out in October or November, there is a photo of the scene with Elvis, Kurt and me.

I think I'll go have a bite to eat in a little while, then jog after the work session - I'm too zonked right now to do anything strenuous.

Photographic evidence of DR DRUXY co-starring with Elvis & Kurt Russell in IT HAPPENED AT THE WORLD'S FAIR.....happens at about 46 minutes into the movie.

Second from left in first photo....far right in the second photo.  Looks like the same camera setup both times.

Apparently DR JRand62 left out the second rule of extras.

Neither did I.

Must have been some catastrophic sorting error at the U.S. Postal Service.

Yikes!  I'm at work and I need to check an order that I placed (for work) on Amazon.com and it doesn't seem to be working.  For the last several minutes, I've been getting the message:

Nothing to report.  School starts in a week, In the Heights is going great.  DD is happy.  Been play ketchup with life the last week or so, trying to exercise again as much as possible.  Also trying to really begin "anew" with new habits, etc.  So far, that's the most difficult

DR Druxy,

I saw the pics of you in the movie with Elvis.  AWESOME!  It must have been exciting to stand so close to Elvis!

Did you get to talk to him?

By the way DR Druxy you looked quite handsome!
