Clint Made My Day With This Post

If you realize each day is a gift, you may be near my age. 83.



My Twilight Years ~ Clint Eastwood

As I enjoy my twilight years, I am often struck by the inevitability that the party must end. There will be a clear, cold morning when there isn't any "more." No more hugs, no more special moments to celebrate together, no more phone calls just to chat.

It seems to me that one of the important things to do before that morning comes, is to let every one of your family and friends know that you care for them by finding simple ways to let them know your heartfelt beliefs and the guiding principles of your life so they can always say, "He was my friend, and I know where he stood."

So, just in case I'm gone tomorrow, please know this:

I voted against that incompetent, lying, flip-flopping, insincere, double-talking, radical socialist, terrorist excusing, bleeding heart, narcissistic, scientific and economic moron currently in the White House!

Participating in a gun buy-back program because you think that criminals have too many guns is like having yourself castrated because you think your neighbors have too many kids.

Regards,

Clint

  1. Too back Clint didn't say this, but I sure agree with what was said.

    Here's the snopes link: http://www.snopes.com/politics/quotes/twilightyears.asp

    Have a fabulous day. ☺

  2. Ha! I never use that leftist-run snopes, but it doesn't matter if he did or didn't write this cuz it's the sentiment that counts. One I share, though I think this goes waaay to easy on him.

  3. Oh dear, and the leftists say that snopes is right wing influenced. When we don't know for sure, we should not credit individuals. Poor Andy Rooney get's blamed/credited for way too many things he never wrote or said either. If we create it and think it's clever, why don't we claim it ourselves?

  4. Best laugh I've had today. I might just have to steal this.

  5. Sandee: Thanks for the link. I should have checked the veracity, but I so loved what he said, that I just posted it. It certainly mirrors what many of us believe.

  6. DaBlade: I agree wholeheartedly.

  7. Granny Annie: If the lefties think Snopes is right wing influenced, then they're more delusional than I already think they are.

    I've been duped into posting an email from a friendly source before and I believe it won't be the last time.

    I thought the sentiment mirrored my own views so much that I just thought I'd throw it out there.

  8. Woodsterman (Odie): Steal away, buddy, just be warned that Clint didn't really say this... even though many of us feel it's spot on regardless.

  9. I love this! Thank you. Randy will get a real thrill out of it.
    Have a fabulous weekend, Cube.
    And yes, I agree with it with all of my heart.

  11. Not accurate, but it's funny as hell!

    (Sigh). So now there's only three of us that I followed during the "Old Days" of blogging that are still out there, and you're one of them.

    Oh well. I did wax nostalgic and posted about science a couple of weeks ago. August will be 9 years for me. I will have to post a picture of a Phoenix for old time's sake.

  12. Nine years! That is an amazing feat. Most of my bloggers have fallen off too. But I picked up one new one. My computer was ill again so I was off just as I decided to be regular again. Now I am back. Yay!

  13. Cube - Clint Eastwood is such a talented guy. Sorry that he is growing old - it will be a loss to the artistic community.

  14. Silly Rabbit: I love it too. Glad you and R. liked it even though Clint didn't really say it. The sentiment resonates with many.

    Jay Noel, although I remember him best as The Phoenix, is one of us oldies but goodies. He's heading towards 9 years; in October I'll be heading towards 10. Yep, we're the old-timers. Quick, get us our canes before we keel over ;-)

  15. That post made my day.

    I'm sure Clint enjoys watching an occasional Dodgeball game.
