Fact. If I say crap and the answer is fact it'd surprise me so I'll say fact and if I'm surprised, I'll at least be right.

There's actaully blue sky out my window on this fine Monday afternoon! First time in a looonnnng time here in the Pacific Northwest. :-) Hope all you FoCers are having a great day!

Yesterday's question: Did Clint Eastwood write many of the scores for his movies?
clint
Here's how you voted:
fact 10
Crap 6
50/50 1

The 50/50 vote is Laralyn who seemed to be trying to hedge her bets. :-)

Here's what the calendar says. . .
It's FACT! "Clint Eastwood wrote scores for movies such as 'The Bridges of Madison County,' 'Absolute Power,' 'Mystic River', and 2005 Oscar Winner 'Million Dollar Baby.' And you can catch him singing lead vocals on the Johnny Mercer song 'Accentuate the Positive' on the soundtrack of his movie 'Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.' He began his professional music career in 1961 with a single called 'Unknown Girl.' Two more singles followed in the next three years, as well as the release of an LP titled 'Rawhide's Clint Eastwood Sings Cowboy Favorites.'"

Hmmm. . . they left off one of my favorite musicals, Paint Your Wagon, in which we were treated to Mr. Eastwood singing 'I Talk to the Trees.' :-) Yes, good old Clint is multi-talented, he just doesn't go around crowing about it. :-)
  • Hey, Wargod, SURPRISE! :-)
  • Pamy gets the Twister Award for thinking this might have more to do with the number of times Clint scores in his movies.
  • Opiliasgrandma wins a Tin Cup for thinking Clint has the largest tin ear on the planet. :-)


So, I guess we'll just move along now. . .move along. . . nothing to see here!

The FoC for today, Monday, January 23, 2006 is. . .

In 1860, the average length of time it took the Pony Express to deliver a letter from St. Joseph, Missouri, to Sacramento, California, was 21 days.

FACT or CRAP? Discuss!

now i'll explain how i knew about clint eastwood and his composing.

before i got married to chuck, i dated a guy named jeff. jeff grew up in carmel, and he was good friends with kyle eastwood (clint's son). jeff's dad worked for clint eastwood. at jeff's dad's retirement dinner in the spring of 1986, mr. eastwood was there, and i remarked to him that i liked his movie "fastbreak ridge" and there was a song in it called "how much i care". he smiled and said "well i wrote that little song". i of course had a shocked look on my face, which he had that smirky grin. he said "i like composing music, and will do it for more of my movies, glad you like them." i also saw a composing credit for the movie "space cowboys" and knew he'd kept at it. he was VERY NICE to talk to, and all of the people that were at this party knew him, and weren't treating him with any "star status". this was the year he was mayor of carmel.

I'll say fact, just because it still takes about 14 days to get a letter from point A to point B, except if it's a bill and you want it to take that long, than it's there the next day.

P.S. FWIW, you can purchase Mr Eastwood's music on Amazon.com. Check out Music for the Movies of Clint Eastwood. And yes, I'm really surprised!! Not so impressed, but surprised.
