Ian Fleming's 100th birthday!

[Dr. No]

May 28, 1908 – August 12, 1964

I hate it when people talk about dead celebrities birthdays Elvis lived so long and no more, Queen Elizabeth lives so long and no more. I don't see a point to endlessly eulogizing sombody.
Ian Fleming lived to be 56 years old, far too young to die.

May be I'm a bit of a hypocrite but here it goes
On the 100th anniversary of Ian Fleming's birth I say we take a moment to remember the man, say cheers and thanks for all of the enjoyment and adventure he brought to out lives. I know that in his life time he could never have envisioned the impact his writing and imagination would have on teh world.



Cheers Ian!

I wish Fleming is still around.

I wish Fleming is still around.

He died quite young. Conceivably he could have lived into the late 1980's. I wonder what impact that would have had on the cinema series and the novels. Rex Stout dashed of 40 + Nero Wolfe adventures. Ian Fleming could have done the same.
