Bouncy ball

 

Hi Natty!  Howdy cowgirl!  I hope you are having tons of fun over there.  Relax and enjoy the ride!  Keep safe and healthy, of course.  I love you with all of my heart!

Gotta quarter?  I used to collect bouncy balls.  I don't know: some people collect art, I collected bouncy balls.  Not cat toys: the cat would lose them.  But I lost my collection when I had to move out of my apartment in Tempe.  But I still have this one from that time.  It got dark over the years, but it still bounces well.

Tepuk dada tanya selera

 

Hi Natty!  How are you, Honey?  Yes, I'm right here.  You relax now, and have an easy life.  Please keep safe and healthy.

"Tepuk dada tanya selera" means somewhat "slap your chest and ask your appetite".  That's no idiom in English, but over here it makes people fat.  Plus the addiction to sugar.  Anyway, I bought some chicken breast a couple of days ago, and I fried up the skin to make artificial bacon bits.  Makes a huge difference in ramen!

The big dogs are coming to town

 

Hi Natty!  Hi Honey!  Your presence is certainly a gift.  Thank you for your love.  I love you too!  Please keep safe and healthy, and have tons of fun!

Hi Natty!  How you doing, Honey?  Being an upstanding member of your society, I expect.  Please don't prefer unbelievers for friends and protectors over believers.  I'm not doing much, just chilling.  You keep safe and healthy now.

Movie night

 

Hi Natty!  Oh yes, that was an awesome photo shoot in Vancouver.  You came up with some fabulous pictures, and you are absolutely beautiful.  I love you with all my heart.  I hope you are having tons of fun, and keeping safe and healthy.

Anyway, it's movie night!  Please watch a movie with me.  "Die Another Day" (2002).  Oh, that's the year André died.  I'm still alive, alhamdulillah.  I saw this movie at the theater when it came out.  I also have this movie in my collection, so I was able to skip the opening credits.  Yeah, Bond had gone major label by this time.  And major label is more about connections than music.  It's not even about materialism: that's just a tool.  I'm not major label, so Shadowplay may never be in a Bond movie.  Intriguing, huh!  Do I want to work with them?  Nah!  Forget it!  Let them worship Allah.  Or let them have Madonna sing every theme from now on, I'm sure that's what people want to look at.  You could write a few Bond movies about my music business lol.  My favorite part of this movie is obviously the sword fight.  Gustav Graves is a great baddie, but a bit too young.  The best Bond villains are ugly old men.  People we love to hate.  Come on, people!  You have so many to choose from!  Look at the politicians and the wealthy!  Bond movies just don't have any balls anymore.

No farmers no food

 

Natty, where are you?  Please talk to me.  I love you.

No farmers no food, and that's only one aspect of it.  Food shortage is imminent.  Protect the food supply chain now.

I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the rejected.

James Bond

 

Natty, where are you?  Please talk to me.  I love you.

So who's going to be the next James Bond?  I sure hope they don't mess with his character: he's meant to be a callous womanizer.  So what if people hate that?  Make them love to hate it.  I repeat: MAKE THEM LOVE TO HATE IT.  The last real man on earth.  As for old versus new movies, there are good and bad on both sides.  The old movies did have the advantage of a smaller budget, so they were forced to focus on human details like story, situation, and character.  I suppose you could credit Ian Fleming for that.  But if he were alive today, he probably wouldn't know how to use a cell phone.  Anyway, here are a few of my favorite Bond moments:
