Walking the drive-through

Wendy and I went to see Quantum of Solace tonight. It was a good "in-between" movie. It was basically a vehicle to help Bond work out his demons from the last film. I'm looking forward to the next one.

I think the Star Trek trailer before the movie was worth the price of admission alone! I'm excited. (can't find the trailer online but will post it as soon as I find it)

But, this post is really about sharing the camera phone pics I took of Wendy and a random woman standing in line at the McDonald's drive through.


We waited a couple of minutes to get some ice cream for Wendy.

Then, she and the woman behind us decided to crouch down and pretend they were driving cars. I couldn't get a picture quick enough but this was my attempt.

Is James Bond religious?

I got this from a Lutheran pastor's blog I just started reading:

http://timesonline.typepad.com/faith/2008/04/was-james-bond.html

The Timesonline blog piece asks, "Does James Bond have faith in anything but himself?"

The author goes on to cite The James Bond Dossier:
Some things are regarded as good: loyalty, fortitude, a sense of responsibility, a readiness to regard one’s safety, even one’s life, as less important than the major interests of one’s organization and one’s country. Other things are regarded as bad: tyranny, readiness to inflict pain on the weak or helpless, the unscrupulous pursuit of money or power. These distinctions aren’t excitingly novel, but they are important, and as humanist and/or Christian as the average reader would want. They constitute quite enough in the way of an ethical frame of reference, assuming anybody needs or looks for or ought to have one in adventure fiction at all. (From The James Bond Dossier 1965)

The piece barely digs into the issue, but it raises an interesting question. Is James Bond religious? We don't know. And, unless the keepers of the canon add something to the storyline, we'll probably never know.

In case they ever give James a religious subplot, I'd like to take a guess:
He's a Catholic.

Your guesses?
