Saturday again, the weekend gets here faster and faster each passing week. 

My back is still incredibly sore; I don't think I injured it but it is dark, rainy-drizzly, cold outside and I believe I already outlined my rational on the weather theory.

There is no special relevance to the title of today's post, I like Hawaii, maybe I'm a little blue that I'm not there, but my post today will certainly not be about Blue Hawaii, I have no idea what I'll be writing about, my brain seems to follow my fingers.

What a weird day, weather-wise yesterday, it was cold and dark, sunny and warm, cold and rainy, sunny and cold, and warm and dark, I hope that about covers each possible scenario.

Again yesterday, I was ill, I got a migraine late morning and that led to my stomach being upset; I thought I was going to vomit, I didn't, thank goodness. 

 I'm kind of surprised, I thought my post yesterday was rather funny, and that it would prompt you to publish a comment, it didn't; some of you did send an email and I thank you for that.   I guess you can never tell what is going to strike your audience as funny, maybe there was just an abundance of people leaving their computers early to start their weekend, yeah, I bet that was it.

Judy and Zac are going to go see a movie today,  I wonder which one they'll go see, I'm not going as  I volunteered to stay home and take care of Winter.

  We cleaned out the refrigerator yesterday by throwing out all of the leftovers, our fridge is now practically empty, what a waste of food!   I remember when I was young and didn't want to eat some particular food that my mother had served,  my mother would tell me that kids in China were starving, I wonder what parents tell their children now to motivate them to eat? 

I watched the movie "Finding Forrester" this morning which stars Mr. Sean Connery who just happens to be my favourite James Bond.  I love the James Bond (J.B.) movies, well, not the recent ones, I think the producers, directors, writers of the latest J.B. flicks have made a big mistake by removing the formula that made the other J.B. flicks so popular, the snappy dialogue just isn't there, nor is Miss Moneypenny (yes I know Lois Maxwell died but there are other actresses,) heck,  they even removed the pretitle sequence wherein the audience hears the J.B. theme, we see James Bond walking by, he is viewed by the audience through the eyes of the barrow of a gun trained by an unknown assailant,  or something like that,  and then the film opens with J.B. in some kind of danger, after that sequence is over, the titles then begin.   The latest J.B. films open with the title sequence, and we as the audience pick up that something is missing; it just doesn't seem right and people like you and I know exactly what is wrong.

The very first James Bond was "Dr. No" and the last one viewed was "Quantum of Solace," what can I say about that?, and I heard they recently cancelled the filming of the latest James Bond movie.

There is plenty to enjoy in all of the James Bond movies, lots of excitement, pretty girls, gadgets and gizmos, exotic locales, fast cars with plenty of car chases,  and a huge supply of megalomaniacal supervillains.

The James Bond film series is a series of motion pictures based on the fictional character of M16 agent James Bond (code designation "007") appearing in the novels of Ian Fleming.  Earlier films were based on Fleming's novels and short stories followed later by films with original storylines.  The franchise remains one of the longest continually running film series in history.

I have two favourite James Bond movies, they are "On her Majesty's secret Service, (OHMSS)" and "Diamonds are Forever."  I love Dame Diana Rigg so that should explain why OHMSS made the list, and I thought the chemistry of Sean Connery and Jill St. John was at its best in "Diamonds are Forever," in addition, I love its theme song.

I am not feeling well so consequently I don't feel like writing, there is no creative juice in me today.  Sorry.
