When James Bond needed a vacation from fighting Her Majesty's cold war enemies, he stayed at the Fontainebleau Hotel on Miami Beach. Now I know why. As the Fontainebleau prepared to re-open this weekend, I watched busty young women in skin-tight uniforms serve fruit drinks to seaside cabanas large enough to have P.O. Box numbers. Supermodel Marissa Miller was posing in a bikini beside a swimming pool as long as her legs, looking a lot like the hottie who fell for Sean Connery in Goldfinger...
...having a hard time grasping the importance of becoming the world's fastest kiwi peeler(multiple-record holder Alastair Galpin set that mark this week, stripping and eating the fruit in about 16 seconds) you're not alone.

Baron is also looking at flavor straws for water and fruit juice. Ingredients have been trialed that make soda water taste like Coca-Cola, and an Indian company called recently to ask if it was possible to add spicy masala flavor to the beads for mixing with orange juice. "It tasted great," Baron says of the sample batch...
...their days of courtship. Frederick went on:“You are like a strong oak who has bloomed to full maturity. Your thick limbs are laden with leaves of crimson and scarlet hue! You are in the full glory of your autumn! Your pendulous breasts swing like overripe fruit!” Satisfied that he had spouted an ode of the highest poetic order, he skipped down the hall to fetch the Bible from his library.Felicity stood rooted in place, stunned and shaking. What did he mean by full maturity? She was a tender blossom! Strong...
