Are you a James Bond fan looking for a new house?
This may be just what you're looking for:
Elrod House, famous for James Bond film, is for sale
Quote:
Palm Springs' Elrod House — the John Lautner-designed property famous for its appearance in the James Bond film Diamonds Are Forever — is back on the market after a drawn-out legal battle and its already generating interest at a list price of $8 million.

Sadly, I have it on good authority that Bambi and Thumper are not included in the deal. If you're a masochist, you'll just have to hire another couple girls.
Cheers,
bcg

Did you notice the realtor was from 'Colwell' Banker?
I mean, what is so damn difficult about proofing in the media these days?

Bond really knew how to fuck up a martini. Should be gin not vodka. Fruit drinks are shaken. Martinis should be stirred.

In the context of when Fleming was writing the original Bond novels, shaking a martini may not have been as fucked up as it is now. There's a bit of a discussion on Wikipedia about it ( Wikipedia | Shaken, not stirred#Purpose of shaking
Now, of course, the phrase is a Bond signature line (along with "Bond. James Bond", so it would have been negligent of me not to throw it in.
