In my mind, as a kid, all these events happened on the same night, and were all related. The blackout caused Elvis to die, and my building to catch fire\u2026which caused the blackout, etc. Everything was connected\u2026the whole world was in on it!<\/p>\n<p>But of course, Elvis did not die during the blackout\u2026although I\u2019m not sure [of] the night of the fire in my building. Things aren\u2019t as connected as we\u2019d like them to be.
