ELVIS PHONES A FRIEND
Elvis Presley regularly called the White House to chat with President and fellow Southerner Jimmy Carter, according to former chief of staff Hamilton Jordan. "Trouble was, Elvis was usually pretty loaded when he called," he tells AP. "It got to the point that the president would just hand off the phone to me or whoever was around. Elvis never caught on."
