Well, if the new 'M' had smoked a thin cheroot now and then, maybe I would've like her moreKiwichris wrote:I'm pretty liberal minded and left wing politically, but even I was mortified with the political correctness and female empowerment forced upon the Brosnan films. I don't oppose those things in real life but would've preferred Bond to stay Bond. Of course its only got worse with the reboot as well, thanks Babs...Dr. No wrote:Capt.

As for the date/marry topic: I did give a girl one of the classic (or classless) LALD tarot card decks, she liked Bond. You won't guess what happened when she shuffled them and turned up a card: 'The Lovers' (and didn't even have to use Bond's stacked deck!).... and yes, we ended up there. I think a Bond girl fan would be fun, even if we disagreed who the best / better Bond actors are, etc. just as long as she's easy-going about it, like Cmdr 0077. Thinking about it, I'd like to know a Bond girl who's a musician, too. That way, we could duet through the night. Btw, a beautiful (Bond?) girl told me a few weeks ago she loves me. First, she said, (just like Plenty O'Toole: "You're strange, Peter Franks, but I like you...") "You're weird..." and a few seconds later she said, "I love you." Actually, at this stage, it's like Enzo Ferrari's famous quote (am making it famous now): "When a man says he loves women, usually he's in lust with her." Oh, that Commendatore! But that is true, the feeling of 'in love' has a lot of passion to do with it; otherwise, what's the point?
Oh, btw, it's Thanksgiving in the States ... Happy One to all wherever you are!
