Gael! I hit that "Goldfinger" link thinking it was going to be the famed "Jill Masterson" shot, but no. Anyway, I *met* that actress last year! Why she was on our campus I don't know (she was with her Yank pal), but Shirley Eaton is just as lovely now as she was then. Prettier, probably. She's only three years younger than my mom (who also looks fantastic, especially for an almost-72-year-old), but apparently getting out of the business early and living in France is quite good for one's looks. (I think we should try it.) Ms. Eaton is such a gracious soul, too. I had no idea who she was when they came in (I'm not a big Bond fan) and she was quite amused at her friend's attempts to impress me with her credentials. A lovely, lovely soul she is.
Thanks for all your great updates. The happiest of new years to you and yours!
I'm an entertainment editor at MSNBC.com, and have maintained Pop Culture Junk Mail since August, 1999. The New York Times called the site "one of the best places to explore pop culture online," and Entertainment Weekly included it on their Top 100 Web Sites list. If you like weird food, strange products, and 1970s and 1980s nostalgia, PCJM is your home away from home.
I have a brand new BOOK, written with Brian Bellmont. "Whatever Happened to Pudding Pops? The Lost Toys, Tastes and Trends of the '70s and '80s." Buy it online, and follow our retro reminiscing on our GenXtinct blog,Facebook, and Twitter.
