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

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,

I mean, what is so damn difficult about proofing in the media these days?

Perhaps the editor had one to many martinis.

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

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.

Rare Frank Lloyd Wright House Goes on Market For First Time Ever

I suppose that, strictly speaking, you don't have to move to Minnesota if you buy the house, but if I were paying a million-and-a-half for a Frank Lloyd Wright house I'd damn well move there and live in it, Minnesota winter be damned.
