Ian Fleming was born on this day in 1908. Following his service as a Naval Intelligence Officer in World War II, he introduced the world to James Bond with the publication of CASINO ROYALE in 1953.
“Everything I write has precedent in truth.” – Ian Fleming
Do you have a favorite Ian Fleming novel or James Bond movie?
Time I address the elephant in the room…..There I was, trying to enjoy a Mets game like a normal American. And who shows up sitting behind me? THAT WALL-CRAWLING MENACE! And what is he doing? Save the city? OH NO!!! SITTING IN PREMIUM SEATS PROBABLY PAID FOR BY MY TAX DOLLARS!!!
Before we get into today’s festivities let’s take a moment of silence for all those we’ve lost. Let’s honor those who fought for us and our country today and everyday. Happy #MemorialDay everyone, God bless.
“If you are able, save for them a place inside of you
and save one backward glance when you are leaving
for the places they can no longer go.
Be not ashamed to say you loved them,
though you may or may not have always.
Take what they have left and what they have taught you
with their dying and keep it with your own.
And in that time when men decide and feel safe
to call the war insane, take one moment to embrace
those gentle heroes you left behind.”
The lines quoted are from a poem written by Major Michael Davis O’Donnell on January 1, 1970, while stationed at Dak To, Vietnam, just months before his death in March 1970 .
Have a memorable Memorial Day 🇺🇸

One actor, in one scene, in one movie, summed the reality of an entire generation forever after. And we didn't know it then. Gen X is Roy Batty. https://t.co/CScJBK4PvH
What an honor! I got to sing to Veterans from WWII all the way to Iraqi Freedom and all in between at the local VFW. A few of these men are over 100 years old.

Stopped at the Buc-ee’s in Smiths Grove, KY on the way to this evening’s FOURTH OPTION event in Franklin, TN. 🇺🇸 I can’t believe I just discovered Buc-ee’s on this book tour! I think I am going to do a “road trip” book tour at some point that takes me from Buc-ee’s to Buc-ee’s. As Buc-ee’s did not have copies of THE FOURTH OPTION, I brought one in, signed it, and left it in the book section for anyone stopping by. Enjoy the read! Now I’m going to chow down on my chopped brisket Buc-ee’s sandwich paired with an XL Dr Pepper - lunch of champions 💪 See everyone tonight in Franklin, TN! https://t.co/vnVoVyFlAR
Donnie Wahlberg Says He’s Given His Life to Jesus
“I had just finished creating the New Kids Las Vegas show and being involved in creating this new spin off TV show that I'm the star of … To the outside world, it's like you are at the top, and I felt at the bottom. I talked to my wife and I said, I have to connect with Jesus. I have to give my life to him now.”
Louis L’Amour, the “laureate of the lariat,” was born on this day in 1908. A veteran of World War II, L’Amour worked as an elephant handler, miner, merchant seaman, animal skinner, lumberjack, and professional boxer along his journey. His breakout novel, HONDO, was published in 1953. It was his novelization of the screenplay and film of the same name starring John Wayne based on L’Amour’s 1952 short story THE GIFT OF COCHISE. HONDO was published the day the movie hit screens with a blurb from John Wayne stating that HONDO was the finest Western he had ever read. Louis L’Amour published over 100 works during his lifetime including LAST OF THE BREED, one of the four novels that directly influenced my thriller, SAVAGE SON. The first and last chapters of LAST OF THE BREED are nothing short of brilliant.
Louis L’Amour was presented with the National Gold Medal for lifetime literary achievement by Congress in 1983 and the Medal of Freedom by President Ronald Reagan in 1984. His life and work continue to influence today. Get to know the man behind the books through his autobiography, EDUCATION OF A WANDERING MAN.
“I think of myself in the oral tradition – as a troubadour, a village taleteller, the man in the shadows of the campfire. That’s the way I’d like to be remembered – as a storyteller. A good storyteller.” – Louis L’Amour
There is an amazing new film coming out on the life of the spiritual father of the United States of America — A Great Awakening. Interestingly enough, his name is George. Not George Washington, but George Whitefield. His preaching prepared the way for the American Revolution. Before there was a revolution, there was a revelation — from a man of God.
I love this film and I want you to see it. Tonight at all Harvest campuses, we are going to give you an exclusive look at the film in its entirety, beginning at 6:00 PM.
I am also sitting down with the director, Joshua Enck, and the actor who plays Whitefield, Jonathan Blair — both today and tonight. Don't miss it.
Check out this trailer for the film! 🎬
