Q: Is Anna Nicole Smith our generation's Elvis?

A: Aside from the struggles with drug abuse and weight fluctuation, dead sex symbols Anna Nicole and Elvis might have something new in common: not being dead.

Or more specifically, crazy people thinking they're not dead. That's the impression I get from T.A.M.S.Y.'s newly most popular Google hit: anna nicole smith alive.

Both Smith and Presley famously enjoyed phoenix-esque resurgences, so maybe we shouldn't be surprised if America's still waiting for the most unlikely Comeback Special yet. A nation can dream, can't it?

"If I Can Dream" VIDEO GOES HERE


RELATED: Thanks to you, beloved readers, for making last week T.A.M.S.Y.'s second-most-visited, most-commented-on week ever. At this rate of ad-revenue growth, I'm certain I'll be able to retire comfortably by 2044.

RELATED #2: As I finished writing that, I received an email saying I'm one of the finalists for my most recent submission to Overheard in New York's ongoing headline contest. I can't even remember what my entry was, but suffice to say it was probably disgusting.

Anyway: Welcome, OiNY readers! Please enjoy your time here, and For Fuck's Sake, Buy Some WineTM.1

So will there be rumors that Anna Nicole is really still alive? like Tupac and Elvis? Perhaps working at a BK Lounge in Buffalo?

Not to rain on your parade but I won a Overheard in NY Contest (posted here: http://mcwasp.blogspot.com/2006/12/sex-does-sell.html#links)

I did win and supposedly you get a signed copy of the book... But a few months later.. No book.. I still love the site though..
