I will go on over and check out Pat's now.
Have a great week my good friend!
Fun! I'm betting that Eastwood is mentioned a lot this week. :)
ReplyDeleteOne loves Eric Clapton. Interestingly the song is about the same person as the song "Layla."
ReplyDeletegood thing he didn't take a wrong turn in chicago
ReplyDeleteSuz;
ReplyDeleteI agree, thanks Suz!
Tch, tch, Clint...You're losing your edge.
ReplyDeleteHilarious, Peggy! I liked your bringing in those disparate people-- Hercule Poirot, Clint Eastwood and Cecil B. Demille!
My husband appreciates your comment, too! We have fun doing these. In fact, I look forward to each week's picture!
What a group to bring together.
ReplyDeleteMy mind works in very strange ways.
Thanks so much Pat, I always love your comments!
He does look a little like Eastwood-maybe it's the poncho...LOL!
ReplyDeleteSince I am a Poirot fan, I loved it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Susan F.

ReplyDeleteI think you're going to be right.
The dude just screems spagetti western!
Wow, I'd never have thought of bringing Poirot (whom I love, by the way) into this MF. Kudos to you, Peggy, and have a great week.
ReplyDeleteGood thinking, Peggy! It appears that our Mr. Eastwood may have taken one too many hits on the set. He does look rather unsteady.
ReplyDelete..
I just can't see that dapper Poirot trudging through the desert.... even to solve a crime!
ReplyDeleteI got a sneak preview of Pat and Jerry's takes on it, so I had to change my Clint Eastwood one to something even more historical.

ReplyDeleteAs soon as I read "Eastwood" I heard the music from the Magnificent 7 in my head! Well done!
