Title: Clinton Apparently Blasted the Beach Boys on Air Force One Post by: ArchStanton on March 26, 2015, 01:32:51 PM I got a kick out of this article in my morning paper today, with an interview of a former steward on Air Force One. The best part?
Quote Clinton was the first president who was Franklin’s age. Their generational similarities and Clinton’s magnetism made Franklin feel very comfortable with him. Thus the rousing get-your-rear-end-to-work summons. Clinton played the Beach Boys and Four Tops — loud. Franklin was so relieved at the change from country music.

That's nice to hear, but the way you titled the thread caused me to assume something different! Title: Re: Clinton Apparently Blasted the Beach Boys on Air Force One Post by: Capitol Punishment on March 26, 2015, 05:41:44 PM I was expecting something different too. I read the title as "Clinton Apparently Blasted the Beach Boys in Air Force Radio". :-D

Title: Re: Clinton Apparently Blasted the Beach Boys on Air Force One Post by: ArchStanton on March 26, 2015, 06:11:50 PM Sorry, I kept thinking over ways to phrase it and kept coming back to "blasted". "Clinton Played Beach Boys Loud on Air Force One" might have been a better idea, but I'm a wanna be writer and we always think it's better to be creative with verb choice.
And we're most always wrong. :smash Title: Re: Clinton Apparently Blasted the Beach Boys on Air Force One Post by: Autotune on March 26, 2015, 07:05:15 PM I want my 20 seconds back.

Despite that, I dislike both of them. :) Title: Re: Clinton Apparently Blasted the Beach Boys on Air Force One Post by: Shady on March 27, 2015, 01:15:17 PM I want my 20 seconds back. That's what Monica Lewinsky said Title: Re: Clinton Apparently Blasted the Beach Boys on Air Force One Post by: filledeplage on March 27, 2015, 01:28:19 PM "Clinton played the Beach Boys and Four Tops — loud." Ya, and "with the radio blastin' goes cruisin' just as fast as she can now!" :lol That's nice to hear, but the way you titled the thread caused me to assume something different! We "blast " (that music!) it alright... :thewilsons |
