SCORE ONE FOR THE PRIME MINISTER OF JAPAN AND ELVIS.
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — President Bush's going-away present to Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi was some kind of "Good Luck Charm." Amid the ceramic monkeys, floor-and-ceiling green shag carpet and animal-head armrests of Graceland's Jungle Room, the delighted prime minister just couldn't hold back the Elvis lines.
All it took was a simple invitation from Bush.
"You're a pretty good Elvis singer," the president said, in an obvious prompt to his guest.
Koizumi quickly complied he sang. "Wise men say, `Only fools rush in.'"
SCORE ONE FOR THE PRIME MINISTER OF JAPAN AND ELVIS.LOL
