Lovely pool. But is there a more horizontal approach?. :(


Horizontal-shmorizontal... All 00's are required to either basejump, repel, jetpack, or zipline to the cabanas from the access provided on the roof or from the room.

**Damn Agents will want a nurse to powder their bums next...**

LOL. Yeah. I'll be expecting some sandpaper from 003 for my hemorrhoids on his next visit to the UK. :)

Maybe the high view images are from when he kicks my butt into the ether. :tup:

Wish we could experience this event. Maybe on DTBB5 we could make it. :tup:

Cheers,

No, Bondian, The elevated pics are due to the fact I tweaked his clearance and the hotel staff had him hanging John Cleese style ala Fish called Wanda, he flipped the images to try to save a little face...

We're all going to be sooooo sauced by the end that the exact numbers may never be fully known.

I'll leave that to Felix's boys to figure out.

" *hic* What's your point? Whaddya you lookin' at? Where's my Cosmo?" - Malice

"Lava - Take the lamp shade off your head." - Bryce

"Who's pouring next?" - Jaguar

"Who's getting more ice?" - Professor Dent

"Thank God we've been drinking all day." - D-0-7

"Mal, WHERE are your clothes?" - Bryce

"Cocktail!" - Malice

"As it should be as written in scripture. Fleming would have been proud." - Matt (004)

"You limeys are a bunch of drunks. Where's that bottle of Jack?" - Felix

"Which of the girls aren't naked...and why not? I want to know.....NOW!" - Bryce

"You boys want some cigars?" - Q

I'm just guessing here, but these are some of the quotes I expect.

Just got a PM from our resident "I have a cameo in Casino Royale" main man, erniecuneo. Looks like he'll be attending....Once he gets back from China (don't ask). This is going to be a great crew this year.

It's always been a good crowd, but this one may put it off the planet.

and DTBB4 is already in the works for 2009.

I was really hoping to make it this year, but I'll be drawing closer to production of the FOX television show I'm casting so I won't be able to take any time off until September.

Shame, no TV show should get in the way of DTBB.

As for the squished grapes, we all gotta make a
living one way or another (you know, with the MI6 budget cuts and all). I just make mine of old squished grapes, how many others can drink on the job :tup:

She won it in a poker game in Rio.

Table stakes. Big table. Small mule.

Yeah, better you don't ask anymore than beyond this initial inquiry.

I checked out the itinerary. Looks like a great event. For sure we will be there for our annual Sep/Oct trip, but still no firm schedule for August. Congrats on the venue also. Venetian is a great property. Very nice poker setup as well.

Cheers,

Cheers 4A. :tup:

Yes, The Venetian (and now it's sister hotel the Palazzo) have always been one of my favorite resorts in Vegas. As we are celebrating FRWL on this one, it was the obvious choice.

Well, if not for DTBB, keep me posted on your plans for later on. Be great to see you both again. Again, caviar is on me, martini's on you. I'll bring a few of the XO's as promised.

Give Lady 4A a squeeze for me. :tup:

Squeezing a lady, sounds good.

I'm still trying to get the picture of that big table and small mule out of my head.

Um...Yeah...He did.

It's prepared a little differently. :tup:

Now, back to business.

Felix and Dr. Warmflash have been working hard on squaring away all the extras and the crew of A's 13 are meeting next week for our next to last meeting. Just the usual suspects and the usual evening - little food, some cold ones and a hot tub full of sultry ladies.

It's tough work, but somebody has to do it.

Best that it's left to the established professionals....

You know, the drinkers.

Oh, were you looking at me when you said that?

I wasn't really paying attention... was wondering why sometimes the lime floats in the gin & tonic and sometimes it sinks.

I've always found it depends on the ratio of Gin to tonic and the size of the lime.

Besides, if it's good Gin and there's enough of it, does it really matter?

No...really?

Is there any such thing as "Good Gin"? I mean, really, drinking Pine-sol? Someone actually looked at a pine tree and said, "Boy, that Juniper looks good enough to drink!"?

Now Bourbon, there is a man's drink!

I could not agree with you more my dear Felix, I could not agree with you more. I use gin to clean the wood dash on my Jaguars.

I use Sherrywood Glenmorangie 12 on mine. It works out great.

*sits in XJ6 passenger seat with soft rag*

"One for you, one for me. Two for you and one, two for me. Three for you and one, two, three for me."

*wakes up in XJ6 with empty bottle*

"Now that's what I call a shine!"

Thank God I was still in the garage.

The Lillet Blanc vermouth takes the bite out of the Gin when I make a Vesper.

I've been know to enjoy a little Bourbon and branch-water. Mr. Daniel's and I are on speaking terms. We just don't talk that often.
