    Did someone remember to plug him in? If not, someone should do that now so he’ll be ready to go for principal photography. A good dusting wouldn’t be a bad idea either. Maybe some fresh oil for the hinges.

    Can you put this in a five-seven-five syllable scheme?

    I never learned to read! (This has also been problematic when dealing with lists from my mother.)

    Upon request:

    John Glen, rusty hing'd.
    Did you remember to plug
    Him in? Bond awaits.

    At the risk of bean-counting, I never took the word "Idea" to have three syllables (eye-dee-ah), but consider the "-dea" as a single sound, just like "dear" pronounced by a Brit.

    Fair enough, I admit
    Prose can be the diff'rence 'tween
    Dubya/dubble-yoo.

    Now BOND 25.
    The trails' gone cold--no breadcrumbs.
    Rare as Hildebrand.

    A deadly combo.
    One should never drink and drive—
    Olive choke hazard.

    Where franchises are concerned
    It's temporary.

    If Bond can handle
    Centipede. Python. Dragon.
    So bring Black Widow.

    Most combinations
    of those would make a great BOND
