No. But I like Clint Eastwood's SON'S music. He's a jazz bass player by the name of Kyle Eastwood. Has anyone here heard of him?
He that knows it, knows it not.

No, but I have met a Bahai'i missionary who served there before coming to my part of Australia. (True!)
Did you know that Orson Scott Card was also a missionary before he became a writer?
