Casino Royale

Last night we rented Casino Royale – a James Bond movie, and I’m not overly fond of James Bond movies.

However, that said, this was a good movie. I enjoyed it. And James Bond (whatever the guy’s name is who played him, I don’t know and I’m too damned lazy to look it up right now) was actually believable.

This is not one of those Sean Connery or Roger Moore James Bond’s where they use stupid lines and you wonder why in hell all the women are attracted to them.

This James Bond is not pretty, not a good looking guy. As a matter of fact he’s got this bigger bottom lip that almost makes him look like he’s pouting half the time and he’s not the best looking guy I’ve ever seen, although he’s got quite the body, unlike other James Bonds – go ahead and look at one of those Bond movies where Sean Connery is in a bathing suit… almost laughable compared to this guy’s body.

Anyway, it was an action movie. It didn’t have the ridiculous, tongue-in-cheek, comedic spy gadgets that all the other ones had. And it didn’t have villains like Jaws or the fat guy with the killer frisbee hat, it actually had villains – believable villains.

I would recommend this movie because even if you have no idea who James Bond is, it holds its own just as an action movie.

Rent it. Rent it now.

Well that just confirms my theory, its a “Chick Flick”.

I saw it at the movies, and its was to me at least John Wooish in the first part, got lost in mush in the middle, and just about made up for all that at the end.

Especially with the line, “Don’t you ever break into my house again Bond, or I’ll have you killed”. Oh and calling the woman from the government who handles the money, “Moneypenny”. So deliciously apt yes?

Re: your car dripping.

Sorry too bloody cold to work on cars in the snow.

Where’s the leak? take me a Pic. Long distance diagnosis at your service. 1st check the colour/color of the fluid, and then feel it and smell it.
1: green/yellow = coolant for the engine
2: red = trans fluid or power steering fluid on some
3: brown or blackish = engine oil
4: clear slimy = brake fluid
5: clear not slimy = A/C dripping condensate water not a prob.
6: gas smell = gas = don’t smoke get fixed asap
7: yellow snow = don’t eat
8: blue snow = don’t eat
9: Make sure your anti freeze is good thats the green/yellow stuff thats used instead of water, in the radiator of course but you knew that didn’t you. If thats leaking from the middle of the car if usually means one or more frost plugs has burst due to the cold and the antifreeze mixture not good enough. Can be as easy as buying a new one and tapping it back with a small hammer, then re-filling the fluid, or as hard as removing the engine to get at the hardest one to get at, right at the back of the engine.

But I’ll bet its not that. I just like to mention the worst possible thing so now when you find out what it really is, it will be less of a “thing”.

Good luck.
