I supposed it would present too much distracting humor - and confusion for those seeking some deeper meaning - were the gantry to have a name painted on, as with airplanes and boats. The name ? Elmer, of course. As for assassins on gantries, they'd…

Fassbender nearly 4 1/2 years younger than Elba. Fassbender was born 4-2-77 whereas Elba was born 9-6-72. Elba does not show his age much at all, though.

I really would love to see a Derek Flint movie. Not all the way to the Austin Powers end of the spoof spectrum, but fun and crazy. Here's my suggestion for the part -- Idris Elba. He's yet another Brit who can convincingly portray an American. He ca…
