A Foul Quest, Manco
It has come to my attention that, despite our best efforts, we have failed to get the title of the new James Bond film changed. It is still the clunky and barely literate Quantum of Solace. In one last effort to have the title changed at no additional cost to the producers save that of inserting a villain named Manco - very Bondian in my view - I have come up with the anagram in this headline.

A blog about, among other things, imaginary ideas - What ifs? and Imagine thats. What if photographs looked nothing like what we see with our eyes? Imagine that the Berlin Wall had never come down. What if we were the punchline of an interminable joke? All contributions welcome.
Have you read the original short story? Very unBond. I eagerly await the Hildebrand Rarity (from the same collection)becoming a Bond film title.
ReplyDeleteWhile waiting for my daughter's sausages to cook I entered Quantum of Solace into an online anagram engine and I have discovered a useful command for those holidaying in Gibraltar: "Macaque of lust, no!".
ReplyDeleteRest easy, Bryan. Like every Bond film since 'From Russia With Love', it will be referred to as 'the new Bond'. After a while, it will become 'the one where Judi Dench had three nipples' or some other easy to remember fact.
