50 Years of Bond Cars, The Great Gatsby, Ashton Martin, Lamborghini, Ferrari & More @ Luxury Supercar Weekend 2012

Luxury Supercar Weekend 2012, VanDusen Gardens in Vancouver BC, Canada. At the 50 Years of 007 James Bond Cars exhibit, you would find an Aston Martin, Bentley, Daimler-Chrysler, BMW, Mustang, Triumph, Thunderbird etc. On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. Not necessary what 007, the James Bond characters had driven, be they Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, or Timothy Dalton, Daniel Craig. So long as the vehicle appeared in a Bond movie, it qualified for inclusion.

The Bond car had always been conceived as an Ashton Martin. But since so many car-makers bribed the movie’s producers with product placement deals, the audience saw a whole spectrum of different makes and models appearing in that movie franchise. Dr. No, The Spy Who loved Me, You Only Lived Twice, Casino Royale etc. Can you spot which car is in which movie?

There are also vintage autos at The Great Gatsby exhibit. Million dollar cars, literally. Each. Owners stood by their prized possessions in 1920s attires seemingly eager to relive that opulent Big Swing Jazz era. F. Scott Fitzgerald would have been proud.

Not to be left out were a slew of classic and most up-to-date models from such venerable sports car-makers as Lamborghini, Ferrari, Louts, Maserati and more.

Taboo Sex Show 2011 Vancouver – Diamond Minx Burlesque Adult Entertainment Naughty But Nice

[WARNING: MATURE CONTENT NOT SUITABLE FOR MINORS UNDER 18 YEARS OF AGE.]

This year, the Taboo Sex Show 2011 Vancouver is being held at the Vancouver Convention Centre New West Building A & B from January 13-16, 2011.

Billed as a ‘Naughty But Nice Sexy Show’, the 4-day trade show/live performance event has more than 80 exhibitors participating. Featured headline acts included Stiletto Storm, Emcee and Internet sensation Samantha Mack, Diamond Minx and Maggie Pie Burlesque, Aradia Fitness Pole Dancing, Miss Pole Dance Canada Crystal Lai, latex fashion Show by Wares & Wear, Wild West Cancan & Dazzling Divas. There are also bikini contest, exotic dance showcase, body painting competition etc.

To expand your horizon and knowledge base, there are plenty of seminars that cover a wide variety of hush-hush subjects: bondage intro, spanking 101, lap dance for your partner and more. Balanced sexuality, relationship visioning and emotional vampire may pique the interest of many first-time visitors.

However, familiar terms like Eden, paradise, fantasy island and loving and sharing may not necessarily be the kind that many religious-minds would approve. DIY therapeutic devices, sex toys galore and some acts can only be shown behind a black curtain and no photos allowed. What kind of acts? Some call it pleasure and others label it pain. All depending on your point of view and level of indulgence. Heaven and Hell are separated by such a fine line.

Pyrex apparatus are built for safety so as not to cause any bodily harm. Oh, behave, but ask as many questions as you like, your friendly salesperson is there to answer your enquiry. Don’t worry, what happens at the Taboo Sex Show 2011 Vancouver stays on the trade show floor. Want some freebies, at least an exhibitor or two were eager to pass out the Big ’O’. That’s oxygen, stupid. What were you thinking? :)

The Taboo Sex Show 2011 is a licensed event. Tix are $15 (online) and $20 (cash only at the door). Opening night was on Thursday (Jan 13) and it’s Girls Night Out. Tickets were 2 for 1 for the ladies, so that evening was filled with young ladies cursing the showroom floor with friends. Gate-checkers would ask to see your driver’s license to make sure you are 19 and over.

Taboo Sex Show 2011 certainly raised the temperatures of this city in the middle of winter. A few more shows like that and Vancouver could just have an early spring. Cheery blossom time in January for Lotusland, why not? Just keep the snow up in the mountains.

Special props goes to Diamond Minx who did an excellent burlesque stripe-tease act that is featured in the following video.
