You’re right. I never said the most or the pinnacle of the anti-gay scenes.

And I traded obscure references and quotes with my buddy at work. He was the winner usually but didn’t “have a life” as William Shatner would have advised him to get. Sort of like Tony DiNozzo character on NCIS.

I started reading the books when I read in Time Magazine that John F. Kennedy liked them. Saw Goldfinger for 50 cents (2nd run theater so it wasn’t 75 cents). Crowd did giggle when they heard Galore’s name. Note: JFK, Ian Fleming, Roger Moore and I are all Geminis.

My first Bond film was Live and Let Die. I soon after saw Diamonds Are Forever and You Only Live Twice as a double feature in a second run theater. It was strange, seeing Connery as Bond after having accepted Moore as Bond.

Loving all this 007 talk. I had a cat named Miss Galore, my father was an acquaintance of Ian Fleming’s, and I have, I believe, every Bond book in first edition. Carry on.
