RIP...

SCOTUS

Nah. Depending on the results of the election, some court packing may be in order. Not something I would normally like to see. However, after the actions of Moscow Mitch and his merry band of hypocritical 45 scrotelicking cucks, the game is now the game.

Used to run into him in Lyford Cay from time to time.

In my opinion his best line wasn't from a Bond movie.

"He pulls a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue."

If only it wasn't another lousy Brian DePalma movie.

I also liked Sean in Finding Forrester and Entrapment.

I'm going to have to say his best movie is "The Man Who Would Be King." Didn't hurt it's directed by John Huston

Connery did a movie called “the hill”.  Anyone see that?

That is a fantastic movie.

My son's middle name is Sean, after Sean Connery.

From the LA Times: "Cecilia Chiang, the person largely credited for introducing regional Chinese dishes to the United States and transforming the way Americans think about Chinese cooking, was all of those things but still, somehow, underappreciated."

She was 100.

She was featured not long ago on an episode of Taste the Nation with Padma Lakshmi. What an amazing life. (And the TV series is very good, BTW. Worth seeking out.)

Playboy magazine November, 1965. Makes it worth taking another look at Marnie.
