I am thinking of going there next summer.
It must simply be comedic recall I think as Bond had used it as a means of introduction earlier.
Yes. It is a baron landscape. I was shocked, I was like where is the grass and the trees, why are the houses made out of metal sheeting??. Fascinating place, the people are quite dry. I put that down to it being their 6 months of darkness on the 4 occasions I have been there.
That's what I thought. She was Dr. No's spy in Pleydell-Smith's office and would therefore have known of Bond's arrival in Jamaica and of his purpose in going there.
"Vodka martini ordering"
I have heard ordering a Vodka martini "Shaken..Not stirred", is a big no no and you'll get laughed at. I suppose the fact that I am 22 ordering that at a bar would make sense. I have been reading online and this one guy claims "NO ONE" orders a martini shaken and never ever say shaken not stirred...
The guy also claims "Bond only ordered it because he was trying to fake his way in high society type parties."
Is this true?? Has anyone ever actually ordered one? I normally drink beer or me and my friends would goto the store and buy vodka, versus going out to a bar. I can totally see how a bunch of college kids going into a bar and ordering a vodka martini shaken not stirred would look. I'd imagine it would get a ton of laughs. Maybe in the right environment you could but not sure?
Play safe order vodkatini or kangaroo cocktail. Same thing without the embarrassment.
Yes, Fleming covers that in Casino Royale.
Most of TND is covered in 48 hours, but I'm not certain about the PTS.
Yes, you are. Bond is the only one of the Allies to put on the spacesuit. The others simply dress him. The other astronauts are Japanese SPECTRE employees.
The DEA would take the lead in the operation ,it was a major drug dealer,you don't belong to one department i believe,so he was 'on loan' from the CIA.
I always thought that it was a rather late echo of him joining Pinkerton's Detective Agency in the literary Bond series (the DAF novel specifically) after being invalided out of the CIA after the shark mauling he received in LALD. He later returned to the CIA of course.
It's not uncommon for the alphabet soup of American government agencies to work together and share resources on a particular job that is pressing. Sanchez's organization and its massive funneling of drugs would certainly fit the bill of a job that needed a lot of oversight and involvement from many groups, no doubt including the FBI and ATF.
You posted before I commented and refreshed my page, old man. ;)
Hahahaha touche Brady touche.. ;)
Serve dessert and then say that of us!
