Last week I was looking at some photos of the King of Bhutan and I thought, “Wow, he looks like Elvis.”
Then I thought, “Well, maybe that’s silly. He doesn’t really look like Elvis, does he?” And I used that excuse to go to YouTube and watch Elvis videos, in the process forgetting all about the king of Bhutan. (Watching videos is a lot more fun than doing boring webmaster work.)
Well, it turns out I’m not the only one who thinks he looks a bit Elvis-esque. What do you think?
More photos here. (Unfortunately, I can’t find the one that first made me think of Elvis.)
