Snow Cats

I finished up two more snow cats this weekend, taking a break from knitting. These are working up really quickly. I found my wooden thread/scissor/needle holder and it's keeping me going on this project. I'm halfway finished with the final cat. They might get set aside as I need fabric to assemble them.

For a crafting break I went to see the new James Bond movie 'quantum of solace'. In prep for the movie I read the original story that bears the same name. It deals with men, revenge over the long haul so after the movie I think they picked a good name. Of course there aren't many Ian Fleming titles left to choose from. Chitty chitty bang bang could be a good shoot-um one but all viewers would think of it Dick Van Dyke singing 'toot-sweet'. It was a good addition to the James Bond lineup. Vintage echoes of Bond abound with visits to Haiti, loads of chase scenes, great villians, loads of killing but revenge in the end. If you've read Fleming you know that they just lift the titles and tack them on to the movie but in the end this one you could sense old Bond. Go, watch and just let the chases, girls and villians fall where they may.
