Heh.  Have never been able to get into James Bond or any spy movies.
Recently, however I began watching the television show *Chuck* (4/4 stars,
btw), which is an NBC show about a team of spies.  It's one of my favorite
shows right now and I never miss an episode.  So, I guess you could say that
I have only recently began to understand what makes the spy genre such an
appealing story format.

There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what
the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be
replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another
theory which states that this has already happened.
