The sign on the wall appears to say “Be weird.” Our prankster seems to have taken that to heart. That perch looks more than a little precarious, however. Look out below!

If anyone doesn’t recognize them, they are

SPOILER 1
Harold Sakata as Oddjob
and
SPOILER 2
Gert Frobe as Auric Goldfinger
in the film of the same (last) name.

Know the two caricatures names, but not the actors names.

The golf game (with James Bond) takes up 3 or 4 chapters in the book. (I’d have to make a trip to the basement to find my copy and count them.)

A sunglasses pocket?!? What’s he going to do to put them on? Pop off the helmet for a sec?

Walking right next to him will be the barefoot Sherpa guide, wearing a thin jacket and a down vest, breathing the scarce air, and carrying a huge pile of supplies in his giant knapsack.

What’s wrong with the lunkheads on the second floor, with no flowers in their window boxes?

The second floor (first floor in England and Europe) windows are also all closed, and flat, while the ones on the floors above are open, and seem to fold in the middle like shutters.

Maybe the apartments on the second floor are vacant, undergoing renovation.

Very good, particularly #5 & #8. We digress on the last one. Both work, but I think yours is better.

No I put both for 20 but preferred yours.

Agree with kudos for 5 and 8.

OK, I guess I’m first to try.

My guesses are:

1- Gold Finger
2 -Back to the Future
3- Mercury Rising (note, I hadn’t heard of this movie, but it’s what I see depicted)
4- Pixels
5- –
6- Dead on aRival
7- Gone in a minute
8- –
9- Oceans 11
10- –
11- Halloween
12- 13-
14- White Chicks (is that a movie?)
15- Iron Man
16- Daddy? (is that a film?)
17- 18- 19-
20- AquaMan

For a dismal 60% at best (if all are correct).

Ok… I’m late but I’ll try before reading the others…

Pardon me for lack of proper capitalization….

1. Gold Finger
2. Back to the future… I’m thinking they must be movie titles…
3. Mercury Rising? (Bad clue)
4.
5.
6. Dead on arrival (where’s the A in the clue, though?)
7. Gone in a minute.
8. (Something about type A or blood but??)
9. Oceans? Oh! Oceans 11?
10. (Seems to be something about spring or April but?)
11. Halloween
12. Must be “about a boy” but the clue doesn’t make sense
13. Girl interrupted
14. Was there a movie called “white chicks”?
15. Iron Man
16. Daddy? Big Daddy is a movie… but??
17. Ice age? (If so, terrible clue)
18.
19.
20. Aquaman… Or could be <s>Adam Sandlers epic </s> waterboy

A part-basset horse, of course, of course.

As we head into a new era of unregulated industry, here’s a reminder of the past “wonders” and the “benefits” reaped.

Buenos días, mis queridos Cleomigos (¡y Cleomigas, si!)….
I’m it’s better late than never!

Today, Perro seriously thinks about riding again!

We’re getting ever so close…. in preparation… today we meet Toronado… the famed horse of our hero.

A horse who has been waiting for years for his beloved master… in an underground cave… in fact, right below his father’s hacienda.

Surely they must have noticed up there… But, well, I suppose all of California smelled a bit… horsey….

….

This is the cave that will become, if this tale is true to the original storyline, Perro’s secret den, and the center of his operations…

It’s wonderful to see Perro’s reunion with his faithful steed… but …um… let’s watch from just a little farther back, shall we?

I mean… could somebody please open a window?

Por favor… una ventana?

A little side note ….

Toronado is a very special horse.

His name and personality were closely imitated in the horses chosen for some of the human copydog books, films and television shows.

But they didn’t have access to the distintive breed used in “Perro,”

it was a closely guarded secret… a cross between the beautiful Andalusian and the so-called “basset horse”….

itself a cross-breed of Spanish pony and basset hound.

Perhaps that’s a good thing….

cos that human impostor, Guy Williams, could never have ridden the original Toronado…

His feet would have dragged gracelessly on the ground!
