The Bond Night Edition

Churchill College MCR (Grad Student) Guest Night.  James Bond theme.  So much material…where to begin?

-  Let’s take it from the top.  To set the stage…I received this promotional flyer via email a couple weeks back.  I really have no comment…it doesn’t get better than this, especially the unfortunate typo.

 -  Needless to say I was hooked.  Michelle was all about it too.  Next task…secure a guest.  It took all of my considerable powers of persuasion and a bit of arm twisting, but I managed to reel in my best bud from development studies.  The scene was set…

-  The night itself turned out to be magic.  Nothing says Cambridge like ladies in body paint and leotards.  Big props to our neighbors for fake posing for this picture…

-  You know who looks ridiculously hot in black…yeah, you guessed it.

 -  From dinner to the elaborate casino to the chocolate fountain and its fountaining goodness to the Lawrence Welk Jazz Band to the vodka-flavored whip cream dessert (yes, pretty much my dream come true)…it was certainly an evening to remember.  Of course, as always people watching was the main highlight.

-  For example, let’s call it ‘she got game’ highlight #1…the guy sitting beside you at dinner is obviously married, as evidenced by the wedding ring on his hand and the wife sitting next to him.  That his wife has a sudden, obsessive, and persistent need to reach across for the salt and pepper shakers with her left hand isn’t a problem.  It’s all part of the game.

-  ‘He got game’ highlight #1…nothing gets your lady in the mood like involving her in a bit of roulette action.  You know, asking your girl which color to play, as she stands 7-10 feet away from the table, and reporting back to her with the exciting results.  Oh wait, it’s feeling more like a mother-little boy relationship?  Nevermind…it’s all part of the game.

-  ‘He got game’ highlight #2…when your lady is giving off all the right signals, such as rolling the eyes whenever you open your mouth, sitting with her arms permanently crossed on her chest, laughing conspiratorially at you rather than with you, and talking openly about other guys…it’s time to move in for the kill.  Perhaps try giving your lady’s hair a playful little flip with your hand.  If she gives you a “do that again and you will be losing at least one body part” look…don’t be deterred.  It’s all part of the game.

-  ‘He got game’ highlight #3…want to get your lady really hot and bothered?  Take your fine self out onto the dance floor and get down with all the intoxicated and promiscuous girls in the house.  Don’t forget to give a little glance over the shoulder every now and then to see the effect your display of awesomeness is having.  What…she’s still playing it cool?  No worries…it’s all part of the game.

-  ‘He got game’ highlight #4…at the end of what can only be described as a magical night, your lady tries to lose herself in the coat racks rather than spend another moment in your presence.  This is the clincher…a marriage proposal is the obvious next step…as this too is all part of the game.
