Fusing together entries on Fleming’s famous 00-agent and detailed information on cases of espionage, real-life spies, MI5, SIS, CIA, KGB, and others, Historical Dictionary of Ian Fleming’s James Bond asks the question: What proportion of Fleming’s output is authentic, and what comes directly from the his imagination?

Cloning my own webpages is almost instant

Cloning any webpage from the internet is fast but not instant - I upload all of the html, image and audio URLs in just one click - but then I have to delete source hostsite URL and subdivision names - for all of the images and audios to show up

I have a test page somewhere that does that in a few seconds to a few minutes

Otherwise I have to check, edit, delete, recheck, correct many URLs

I saw Beyond the Valley of the Dolls on cinemax about 10 years ago. Today it would be considered R-rated, hell it would probably make it to free cable such as F/x. It's funny because Dolly Reed kept reverting to her English accent. She was definitely pretty. One of the earliest movies I saw when we got Cinemax in 1982 was "A Clockwork Orange".

I understand that. I have saved the source code from webpages that had really nice backgrounds, etc, and spent much time changing the urls and getting rid of their code and javascript. Takes a lot of time.

See my post after yours. None of the movie channels would air X-Rated (before they became “Not Rated”) films, and even a lot of rental places (like “Blockbuster”) wouldn’t, either. Some X-Rated films would get edited down, or they’d appeal to the ratings board to get them changed, such as “Midnight Cowboy.”

Yes, I saw your post. I must have watched ‘Valley of the Dolls’ because I knew I never watched X-rated ones.

Dolly Read was married to Dick Martin (of Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In). She actually married him twice, got divorced, and remarried for the rest of his life until his death last year. Probably one of the more enduring marriages in Hollywood.

I didn’t see “A Clockwork Orange” until around 10 years ago myself, I can’t recall if it was the nudity or violence that got it an X rating.

Yeah, “Valley of the Dolls” wasn’t X-Rated.

There were two rape scenes in it, plenty of nudity, and one scene I cannot never listen to Beethoven 9th again.

My first webpages were simple but painfully difficult to do

The first thing I figured out was to ignore the way any webmasters or internet designers set up their webpages

I have to admit that scene where McDowell beds down the two girls run in high-speed was amusing and original. Unfortunately, as they made it, the thug was made out to be the victim, when the author intended it to be a warning of Britain’s future (which wasn’t far off the mark, with Mohammadans now being the main culprits, and left-wing politics enabling them and disarming the populace).

Lol, if I had done that when I started it would just have shown a jumble of messed up html!

I’ve learned a lot over time.
Thursday the 15th will be my 8 year birthday here on FreeRepublic.

“Beyond...” is worth watching, if just for the camp value. John Lazar as the deranged transsexual Ronnie ‘Z-Man’ Barzell was something to behold (at least before John Waters started doing his low-end trash cinema with Divine & Co.).

A beautiful song, but the lyrics are a bit sad.
Lol, isn’t there a song called ‘Sad Songs’?
