...saved by an Aborigine. His name was Charlie Fishhook. He was driving back toward Broome with his wife and teenage daughter when he saw my wreck on the blacktop.

Meanwhile, some Aborigines of the Bidyadanga people, who lived not far from the crash site, began to converge on the car. They tried gently to free me but couldn't. Later...

...story and a poor joke. People of a religious bent are apt, under such conditions, to see the familiar images of near-death experience--the tunnel of white light with Jesus beckoning at the end, as featured in the memoirs of a score of American K Mart mystics.

These repeat procedures are considered "enhancements" rather than complications, but they do require another round of cutting and lasering.

Bond girls are granted memorable names but fleeting roles. Most get replaced by younger models with less clothing in subsequent releases. Now, in what must be a lothario's nightmare, Vanity Fair has assembled 007's sirens for a group photo. Since Bond has vanquished more vixens than villains, it was a big group (this is only a third of them). From left, they are: URSULA ANDRESS (Honey Ryder), SHIRLEY EATON (Jill Masterson, coated in paint in Goldfinger), HONOR BLACKMAN (Pussy Galore), LUCIANA PALUZZI (Fiona Volpe), JILL ST. JOHN (Tiffany Case) and LANA WOOD (Plenty O'Toole). Where's Miss...
