www.findaclint.org, East Coast Division Announcment:
Our vice president Tequila Mockingbird was at a bar on Monday night. She was there because she was in her own "clint situation," as she had met a man the previous week who was out working as a landscaper, but had failed to get his number. She knew some information about him (his name, kind of car he drove, and area where he lived). So, she began searching. It is for this very reason, she happened to be at this particular bar in Hyde Park, MA on this particular night. This is where she met Bill. She was telling him the story of why she happened to be at this particular bar this night and how it was connected to the "Clint search" that was ongoing in California. It was at this point in the conversation that Bill told her he had a friend named Clint. She questioned him further about where this "Clint" was from. He said that they were all from Tennessee. She asked him if Clint still lived in Tennessee or if he now lived in Boston like Bill. Bill said that he had not spoken to Clint in about a year, but that a few years back, this "Clint" had moved out west somewhere, he thought to California. She asked him if the "Clint" was a mechanic. He said that his friend Clint used to work on cars and always did "odd jobs," but that it wouldn't surprise him in the least if he was fixing cars out west. He said that he did not have a phone number for this "Clint," but was still in touch with some of his buddies in Tennessee that might know more about what he was up to. Tequila did very good work for us and was able to get Bill's number so she could follow up on this.
The following is an excerpt from an email she sent me today:
"Hi,
So I just spoke to Bill (the Tennessee guy) and he said that he has the number of and called two of his old buddies from Tennessee that may know about Clint's whereabouts and situation. He promised me that he'd call them today to see if they either know where we can find him or to see if they have a phone number/address. He also warned me that it may take him a couple days to get in touch with these people, because they both have families and busy schedules. So this is good; we should be hearing back by the end of the week, hopefully with a number. I also asked a bit more about him, an age range etc. and he said that Clint was his age (31) give or take a year or two, so that makes sense with our Clint. I can't believe this...."
I can't believe this either. I do not believe in coincidence and I know that many members of www.findaclint.org do not believe in it either. I don't know if this is the same Clint, but we must follow up on this lead as well as our lead at Carter's Auto. My hunch is that both of these methods of searching will come around full circle at about the same time. The day that Rachel receives information from Bill regarding this very likely may also be the day that Clint finally goes to Carter's and receives the letter from me.
I have made a prediction that news will be forthcoming. The days I am predicting are July 29-31, Aug 2-5 (especially between 6pm on 8/4 and 9am on 8/5), or Aug 10-11, though fully, this could happen any time between today's date and August 20th. These dates and times are based on other information I have received as well as planetary calculations I have made.
Tequila's additional information that she has added to this story does make me wonder about one thing: is this what the tarot card reader in Salem was talking about? He said, "I'm not going to tell you to stop searching, but even if you did, you would find him and it would seem as though it were by coincidence, but yet you know there's no such thing..."
Is this what he was talking about? I thought he meant that even if we had never found Carter's Auto or made calls to all these mechanics, I would "run back into" Clint someday in the future because we were "destined" to meet again as the tarot card reader said. And maybe he means that too. But I have to wonder now, if he was "seeing" this "coincidental" meeting that Rachel was to have at the end of July with Bill, just as we are entering the last few weeks of July, when Clint is said to be returning soon from Northern California...
In the next few days, we very well could have an answer...
I am very proud of Tequila and all of the other www.findaclint.org members who continue to work for this cause...

SONG 34...
I wrote this one at the end of last week, but forgot to put it up here. Enjoy. May the next one be about the second meeting...
______________________________________________________________________
BACK WHERE THIS BEGAN
You…somewhere in the dark
Light a candle while we’re apart
Hope…an intangible thing
But it encircles us like a ring
If you could see what’s going on
Would you have stayed away half as long?
**CHORUS**
You, you’re the only thing that is left
I need to find you…to see you
There is nothing else
But a cold stretch of pavement
Cut across the land
That leads you back where this began
Love…like gravity’s force
Keeps me grounded on the right course
This fire engulfs all that I am
From this moment back to where we first met
If you could feel the flames untamed
Would you have travelled half as far away?
**Chorus**
I…I’m flesh and broken bone
I’m broken and whole
All at the same time
You…you’re death and you’re life
You’re shadow and light
To me, that’s the same thing…
If you could read what’s in my soul
You would question half of what you know
**Chorus**
That cold stretch of pavement
Cut across the land
Leads you back to where I am...

A quote from Bonney Death:
"Clint is definitely coming back...DEFINITELY...we don't know when exactly, one of his friends thought maybe this week..."

CLINT UPDATE
Clint has still not been to Carter's Auto since March 17th. It has been confirmed, however, that Mr. Carter spoke with Clint's friend at the beginning of this week. This guy says that he has spoken with Clint recently and that Clint is, again, out of town. But from the mouth of Clint, he will come to Carter's as soon as he gets back into town.
We are hoping this will be sooner than later. We think that if it was to be months from now, he would have told the guy to tell Carter it will not be for a long time. Especially, since he knows that Carter has deals that he wants him to work on. Knowing that he is needed down there and the fact that he says he will go in as soon as he gets back, makes us think that it will be very soon, possibly the beginning of next week. It may be that he was just out of town for part of this week and the weekend.
We shall continue to stand strong in hope. As soon as we know anything, it will be posted...

SONG 33...I'LL JUST KEEP WRITING UNTIL HE COMES...AND THEN I'LL WRITE SOME MORE...
_____________________________________________________________________
TOO FAR TO GIVE UP
I get wired around midnight
When the moon hits its peak in the sky
Always looking forward to tomorrow
For darkness to dissolve into light
I resolve…to stay awake
I will not bend…I will not cave…I will not break
**CHORUS**
You are haunting
The path I am walking
And I’ll walk until
The devil says I’ve walked enough
Cause I’ve come too far to give up…
I am in love with your shadow
Elusive as the movement of the tides
Waves will crash and break upon the shore
One day I’ll find you when the timing is right
I resolve…to stay strong
I will not stumble…I won’t trip…I will not fall
**Chorus**
Oh, the light is so bright
Burning from a star that will not die
The light filters through the bars
Of this prison cell
Come release me from this hell
Please, release me from this hell
I see clearest around midnight
That’s when I feel your presence the most
It’s true in dreams…I can taste your lips
But when I wake, you evade me like a ghost
I resolve…that I must wait
I can’t deny…I can’t escape my fate
**Chorus**
Yes, I will walk until
The devil says I’ve walked enough
Cause I’ve come too far to give up…

THE CLINT UPDATE:
On Tuesday, Mr. Carter told Beth that he had a lead on something…but he wasn’t going to tell her what it was because he didn’t want to get our hopes up if it turned out to be nothing. But he seemed to think it might be some news. He told her to call back on Wednesday, but she didn’t call until late in the afternoon. He was on his way out for the day, so they didn’t really talk. He said he was still waiting to hear more on this lead. He said, “There are still two more days left in this week.” We found this kind of odd…as though he really thought that something important was going to come to light this week. She called again yesterday (Thursday) around 1pm, but no one answered the phone. She tried again at 4pm, and Mr. Carter answered and said that he was with a client and couldn’t talk at the moment. He told her that he may have found out something that we were going to be really happy about, and he told her to call back first thing in the morning. First thing? What is so important that she has to call back first thing, we wondered? He’s never said anything like that before. We speculated: what if one of Clint’s friends or Clint himself was the “client” Mr. Carter was talking to? Mr. Carter wouldn’t be able to say anything to her then. And if Clint knew that he was on the phone with Beth, he very well might have told Mr. Carter not to tell Beth that he was there. If I were Clint, in those first few moments of receiving the letter, I would want to wait. To take the letter home to think about it. I wouldn’t want to be put on the phone immediately with this mysterious girl’s best friend. What would I say? So, what did he have to tell her first thing this morning? That Clint was there? That Clint’s friend was there? That Clint had called and said he was coming in? That Mr. Carter had actually spoken to Clint or someone close to him? These questions remain unanswered…
What was the news today?

SONG 32...Is this the final song before he is found????
___________________________________________________________
ANY DAY (COULD BE THE DAY)
I live in a temporary cage
No one gets in and I rarely come out these days
What’s the point when most metal eventually rusts?
I only gamble on gold when the stakes are high enough
Some people say they don’t get it
They crash and burn in a minute
That’s why I’m holding out…for the big prize
**CHORUS**
Cause ooh…I don’t want a little
I want a lot and I won’t settle
Ooh…the best things are worth their wait
Any day…could be the day…
Another night and one more new moon
But the guy who reads my tarot says it’s soon
Even if I stopped searching…we’d meet
As if by coincidence…but hell, there’s no such thing
That’s what they say…and the stars are rarely wrong
I could give up…but it’s best to hold on
That’s why I’m heading directly for the finish line
**Chorus**
There is a gypsy mechanic meant for me
He’s got my heart under padlock and key
He looked me up and down…shook me up good
In five minutes…did what in a lifetime no one else could
Some people say I exaggerate
But I assure you it happened this way
That’s why I’m holding out for his return
**Chorus**
I don’t want a little
I want it all and I won’t settle
The best things are worth their wait
Any day…any day could be the day
Any day…today…could be the day…
