You know, it's a funny thing. I'm a huge James Bond fan, but I've never been big on either reading the books or watching the movies. Huh? I know, makes no sense whatsoever.

I don't like martinis, but your post makes me want to drink one right now! And all this James Bond talk makes me want to rat my hair into a flip, put on fake eye lashes and a sparkly gown, and speak with an Eastern European accent.
