    Don't like smoking, but Sean Connery is adorable nonetheless--trouble and all!

    Not Even One Carnation

    Is it bad that I heard that first haiku in Sean Connery's voice?
    Loved them both :)

      No...it was written with his voice in mind. Age will not weary him...he is still gorgeous. Have you seen him in "Entrapment" with Catherine Zeta Jones....Sigh !!!!

      Not yet ... but I'll have to add that to my list.
      Sean Connery, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Alan Rickman ... if I heard all three of them speak at the same time my heart would explode. [!!!!!]

    Nicely done. And I enjoy both performers/performances regardless of the old school contrasts of the ideal masculine and feminine.

    Or are you talking about the carnation he is wearing? Still, female!

    This epitome of Bond has made men's lives all over the world very difficult. How could we ever compete with him? I think you do this on purpose to put us in our place.
