With all the new members we've had join CBn recently -- If you live in the Los Angeles area and would like to be included in other 007 events here in the future please feel free to shoot me a PM.

In Celebration of the New James Bond being announced, zencat & I had a "Daniel Craig IS James Bond" party at our house tonight. 007 fans came to have pizza, champagne, chocolate, chips and other random drinks as well as to discuss, rant and rave about the new 007.

And watch [and eat] some Layer Cake.

Athena, that pic looks like it could be a Pan paperback cover from the "Still Life" series. :)

That cake looks delicious. First time I'd ever wished I lived in LA.

Uh oh - Athena - weren't you suppose to cut out Matt Damon* from the photo? I thought he didn't want anyone to see him in the pictures? Perhaps I'll take the picture offline if you don't get to it first to fix that.

*LOL - Ry, how many times does this happen?

Did we mention that Problem Eliminator provided the cake? And the inscription on the top is his very own handy work. Thanks, PE. The cake was a hit!

Can I sponge some of that cake please?. :)

I hope Bryce (003) didn't show any signs of mental stress after meeting Bondian last week. LOL

Looks like it was a very cool evening. :)

Cheers,

A grand time it was...Granted, I don't know how I was able to be looking as well as I did. Jet lag took up it's toll later.

Good time. Thanks to the Bollinger and some much needed surgar rush.

I'm turning quite a few heads in Beverly Hills these days....Wonder why?

:)

and Bondian - I've been taking my meds (read: Scotch) since spending an evening with you.

Grand night - and I returned the call to CBC but only got v-mail.

FAN-TASTIC! I will celebrate by getting a that EON publicity photo of Craig professionally enlarged and framed. That'll go next to my poster of Dalton :)

Good job folks! :)

We had a house warming last night, also bit of a Bond bash, lots of good Bond talk: all hotties in attendence did not who Craig was, but also did not like Brosnan as Bond ("too fake"). As scientific as it gets! :)

Problem Eliminator should be the official James Bond cake decorator. :) Wonder what his next "creation" will be?

He gets that all the time. I remember people were teasing him about it at the Hollywood Collector's Show I attended.

Maybe Ry can get stand in work for the next Bourne film?

Me, too -- especially because someone just sent me a belated invitation!

But they said I could come next time I'm in L.A.!

Maybe next week . . . :)

Well it's very nice that you think I look like Jason Bourne. Better then looking like Carrot Top. The funny thing is that I was born in the town next to where Matt Damon was born and actually work for the company that he has done many films with. I always thought it would be great to get my picture with him. At least I look like Damon who is a much better actor then Ben Affleck.

Great party on Saturday. Zencat and Athena always know how to host a great bash and yes the cake was quite good!!!
