A true sign the economy is slacking... 50 Graceland employees laid off Fifty workers at the former home of Elvis Presley are being laid off because of declining tourism since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. "Since almost a third of our visitorship is from outside the country, we have seen significant effects and have put into effect a number of reductions and cutbacks," said CEO Jack Sodden, the head of Elvis Presley Enterprises, on Thursday.
