Dumb stuff you didn't know
OK, I admit it, for a long time I thought the "Bond Bug" was named after an appearance in a James Bond film. I just could never place which one. I had no idea they were real until I searched it out a few years ago. Who else would like to admit something silly they thought they knew?

Please use a web hosting site (like photobucket) to store pictures so you can post them here, using attachments makes it hard to view the pictures when you have to scroll to see them. Seeing comparisons of models is hard to see with attachments too.
