Luciana Paluzzi (Fiona Volpe) vs Teri Hatcher (Paris Carver)
Fiona Volpe was the archtypical Bond henchwoman, with the task of seducing men into traps. She was feisty and more competent than many of the henchmen in the Bond films. She met her end while dancing with Bond; a henchman tried to shoot Bond in the back, but he quickly spun round and the bullet killed Fiona instead.
Paris Carver was an ex-lover of Bond’s, and wife of media mogul Elliot Carver. When Elliot was suspected as a terrorist, M sent Bond to seduce Paris and use his prior relationship to get information.

Bond said, in Danish, “I’ve always enjoyed studying a new tongue, Professor.”, to which Bergstrom replied “One might say you have a natural ability.” Just then, the camera panned to show Bond and Bergstrom in bed together. The phone rang, and on discovering it was Moneypenny, Bond replied that he was just brushing up on a little Danish.
We were down, yet again. Durn WordPress… or maybe the FBI, who knows. I hope you’ll keep checking in on us. We will be back to routine soon. Barring another crash.
Reporting for guest hosting duties. Sorry for the delay but Mr. Walrus reports that house chores and getting the new gutters installed has taken precedence for his time. That and drinking last night and then chasing down the Strawberry moon.

Multiple ones. Got to see the Rockies play the Phillies and the Yankees with varying closeness to the field.
Starting witht he Phillies game, had the Bob Eucker seats.
Mile high seat line, without any drugs.
Got a little closer for the Friday night game with the Yankees. This is my friends season tickets.
Then the front row seats. Literally, for Sunday’s game.
Have some more but IMAO is having troubles with uploading images today. May post more later but here are some screen pictures from the game.
I’ll leave you with the video highlights. Later in the game you’ll see a guy wearing a yellow jersey, that’s my friend James who I was staying with. We grew up together in NY.
