The 007 That Could Have Been...
When Sean Connery had left the James Bond series Eon films started to look for a new actor to portray the role of James Bond. After many auditions they found and went with a total unknown. A 29 yr old Austrian car salesman who had become an English model, George Lazenby. The press constantly compared him to Connery. Before the public got a chance to judge Lazenby for themselves the British press portrays him as a trouble maker on the set and feuding with his co-stars.
The press wanted someone to shoot down. Unbeknownst to Lazenby and everyone else; no one was prepared when Lazenby’s advisor makes an announcement to the press that Lazenby wasn’t going to do another Bond picture. When the producer’s were questioned about this they said; it was the first that they had heard of it and so they let Lazenby go. Lazenby didn’t feel that James Bond was going to go on anymore with movies like Easy Rider and changes going on in the culture. He figured this short haired character in a suit isn’t going to make it. When the film was release it set several box office records.
THE 007 YOU MAY NEVER
HAVE HEARD OF.
To this day he regretted at least not doing a second Bond film. Today most Bond fans consider Lazenby to be one of the best Bonds. Some fans consider his Bond more closely resembles the character in Ian Fleming's novels as a more humanize Bond compared to Connery’s emotionless superman. He may not have been Sean Connery, but he definitely had what it needed to play James Bond and was a perfect replacement despite having no prior acting experience. He had style and panache.

Hit-and-run toddler passed away
The hospital states that although they used the best-available resources from military and civilian experts, her injuries were simply too severe. The major cause of death was brain failure, which caused her major organs to shut down. The hospital "deeply regrets the loss, but thanks everyone for their concern and attention."
Our thoughts are with Yueyue's family as they deal with their loss. Outcry over the shocking display of heartless apathy in the double hit-and-run last week will undoubtedly continue as news of Yueyue's death reverberates throughout China.
We'll leave you with this, from an editorial published in ifeng:
This little angel belongs in paradise not in a cold world, right now she will be happy and blessed. She came to this world, let us remember her name, Wang Yue. All the best.
Yueyue, the toddler that sparked an outpouring of sympathy across China and the world this week, passed away this morning at 12:32am. The incredibly sad news was announced by a briefing at the hospital at 8:30am this morning. Yueyue was treated for seven days and nights in intensive care, but despite the best medical treatment available, she simply could not survive her injuries.

Growing up is never easy to do. There are bumps and bruises that must be endured to reach a level of maturity. But once you come into your own taking what you've learned which helps mold you into what God has intended for you to be. It's such a beautiful thing.

To all the Babes
BABES
Gotta love pretty girls with some tattoos and some with not. This is a toast to pretty women everywhere!
...and I know most women don't like to be called babes...but that's why I titled this post that. Because, I love to get women angery. Makes them more sexy...and some women can lie...but most of them like to be angry toward a man. It shows he's not a wimp and will say whatever is on his mind. Women love that.
So, I don't ever have to say sorry unless I did something truly wrong. Women are wonderful because if you are sincere and always ask for forgiveness...if your not a complete asshole a woman will give you another chance. Unlike men...it's not all about looks to women. A fat guy can get a beautiful and smart woman....based on his confidence and pushing to be a better man. I'm not talking about gold digging women or evil women. I'm talking about the creative, smart and caring women that most men look for.
Don't ever think the good women aren't out there. Believe that they are there. If you had shitty wine all of your life...that doesn't mean theres a cellar with some great wine right under your nose. Guys might complain that women have issues and can never make up their minds. Some of that might be true...but we can love them for their imperfections as we hope they love us for ours. So, this is a toast to the mysterious beings with long hair and curves....we toast to you for being different from us and for being the makers of life....and making life more interesting and enjoyable for men.
