James Bond

James Bond is the guy every man wants to be, and every woman wants to meet. He’s got it all: seemingly unlimited wealth, a perfect appearance, exquisite taste, a different woman every time he turns around, amazing adventures, the latest gadgets, and a license to kill. And he gets to save the world time and time again. There have been 21 official Bond films in the EON Productions series, plus two independent features. Ian Fleming created the character in 1953 and featured him in 12 books and 2 collections. Other writers have carried on with Bond stories after Fleming’s death in 1964. This post is in honor of the 100th anniversary of the birth of Ian Fleming tomorrow. Many events are scheduled for the centenary. A new Bond book, Devil May Care, will be released tomorrow. Here’s an excerpt. The new Bond film, Quantum of Solace, will be released in November.

GADGETS AND GIRLS
A rather confident 007 walks into a bar and takes a seat next to a very attractive woman. He gives her a quick glance, then casually looks at his watch for a moment.
The woman notices this and asks, "Is your date running late?"
"No", he replies, "I am here alone. Q has just given me this state-of-the-art watch and I was just testing it."
The intrigued woman says, "A state-of-the-art watch? What's so special about it?"
"It uses alpha waves to telepathically talk to me," he explains.
"What's it telling you now?"
"Well, it says you're not wearing any panties..."
The woman giggles and replies, "Well it must be broken because I am wearing panties!"
007 taps, taps his watch, and says "Damn thing must be an hour fast!”
James Bond Theme (with lyrics!)
Thought for today: You only live twice. Once when you are born and once when you look death in the face. -Ian Fleming
