Don't be making fun of the neckscarf and hoodies! It gets very cold in Hampshire this time of year, especially if you're outside lurking around in bushes like these two clearly are :lol:

in reaction to all these comments regarding my picture, I state the following:
1. YES, I do live in the Netherlands, NO, I am not high on pot or anything related. though I did get very light up above after a little bit too much tea.
2. It was a sort of funny hats day, that place had a Jamaican theme. My hat was one I bought a few weeks earlier, and it sort of grew onto me. Hence the hideous thing on top of me.
3. The girl sitting next to me is already occupied by the other guy who is ' totally spacing out'. I don't have the slightest chance.
4. IF you guys are ever going to the Netherlands, fat chance you'll find me there.

To bad that excuse won't work for me out here. Not in tank top, shorts, and flip flop weather. Although, I have to say, I DO miss the occasional white christmas 8)

Thank goodness I've seen plenty of Lilo & Stitch, or I'd have no idea what you two just said.

Ohana......Ohana means family. Nobody gets left behind........ :mrgreen:

Hawaiians laughed at that movie. They soooo stereotyped Lilo. Short, fat little hawaiian girl with a fat nose.

Aren't movies the epitome of stereotyping? Look at all the decent bond films. The dashing, swathy agent against the villanous and slightly mad evil doer. The only two bonds, in my opinion anyway, to break the trend were Timothy Dalton and Daniel Craig. I absolutely adore Dalton's film The Living Daylights....while I despise the recent Bond on that was released. Not Quantum of Solace, the other one. My other favourite was George Lazenby's On her Majesty's secret service.

Aye, that one was good. Don't think I actualy have a favourite, though.

Ironically, Dalton and Craig, along with the early Connery films, are probably the closest to Flemming's Bond.

Which recent one are you refering to? "Casino Royale" or "Die Another Day"? If it's the latter I agree with you, if it's the former I couldn't disagree more.

I'm not a fan of OHMSS - the plot was excellent, but Lazenby didn't impress. The loose YOLT-OHMSS-DAF trillogy also suffered from the constant changing of actors.

As for Dalton, they're both good but I prefer "License to Kill" to "The Living Daylights".

Wow. You guys are the only Bond fans I've ever heard who didn't want to have George Lazenby drawn and quartered. Personally, I thought he was a hack Moore impersonator, at best.

Mark - I made a VERY short term study of Hawai'ian when I was there. Linguistics fascinates me, and the diversion of Hawai'ian from Polynesian is very interesting.

That would have been extremely difficult for him to do, given that Moore was given the role four years after Lazenby.
