So the title of the next Bond movie has been announced.

No Time to Die

Now that we have 25 Bond movies, that seems like a nice round number to start ranking things.

But wait! Everyone's pretty much done that already. We need something new; something different.

What if we ranked the titles? Not the movies - just the titles......

14. “The World Is Not Enough” (1999)
Now that title there — that’s some creepy bad guy stuff. The sense of doom is baked right into the title, promising an enemy who is finally strong enough to overcome our man. Whether the movie delivers on that promise is a whole other question.

What you might now know, is that viewing such migrations used to be commonplace in the Rockies, as well as on the plains. Herds of mattress roamed carefree until the advent of rail travel, and the hunting of mattresses for sport. Pillowtop Pete was rumored to have shot 60 of them in one day, the dying air of these mattresses flowing out with the overwhelming scent of rubber and talcum.

This stunning video capture shows preservationist’s recent attempts to introduce these noble creatures back to their habitats has been working. Unfortunately, their encroachment on sub-urban, and even urban spaces conflict with the human denizens of these places. This combined with limited enforcement of hunting these beasts from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service means that such sightings will continue to be rare.



Yes, you can find clips of it being mixed in with shots from Jurassic Park or Braveheart, or set to the theme from Chariots of Fire.....

I laughed almost all the way through that vid!  It's a hoot watching the guys trying to catch them!  Talk about a perfect combination of circumstances for a very funny event!  Thanks for posting, rtpoe.   ;D

Not my words, alas. And I forgot to note whose they were.

Imagine David Attenborough saying them.....

Reminds me in years past when our ship would dock at Pataya Beach, Thailand or go to Kowloon in Hong Kong ( When the Brits still ran the show there )  and the shops also honestly told you that they were fakes in Thailand or " reproductions " in Hong Kong ( sounds better I guess ) and their quality was quite good. By the way, where is this tourist trap located at in your photo ? ???

Danged if I know, sol.  There's a euro symbol on one of the signs, so going by that and so much english on the signs, I'd guess somewhere in Europe?

Ah, Zultanite is a mineral mined in the İlbir Mountains of southwest Turkey, according to Wikipedia, so that narrows it down a bit.

I love the typical 'caught in the spotlight' look on a lot of mugshot's faces on this dog's mug.  And I got a giggle out of whoever posted this' wittiness.
