World Hum Contributors Elsewhere in the World

Some link love today for recent stories by World Hum contributors: Abbie Kozolchyk, whose Requiem for a Little Red Ship, is our featured dispatch at the moment, looked into the state of space travel for Forbes Traveler. Full disclosure: I make a cameo, dropping James Bond’s name.

Terry Ward elicited some confessions from a baggage handler for AOL, and Eva Holland wrote at Matador Travel about Robert Mugabe and the Death of Zimbabwe, the first in a series of stories in which she promises to lead with a Motown lyric.

Way to do the things you do, Eva.

Fess up, Mike. You’re a closet Roger Moore/Moonraker fan.

Not a closet fan. I admit, I liked Moonraker and Roger Moore-era Bond.

I’m a Connery guy, but I did like Spy Who Loved Me. Moonraker, on the other hand, is horrible. HORRIBLE! When turkey-neck Rog drives the motorized gondola through Piazza San Marco, and the pigeon does a double-take…brother, that signals the absolute LOW point of the 007 series.

Read the Moonraker book. Or better yet, try Live and Let Die. Fleming is an unrecognized travel writer.
