Three Quartersh Of a Shentury

Some *good* news: Sean Connery is 75 years old today. In honor of his achievement (in… uh, not dying), the following will be presented in Sean-speak. Enjoy.

Mishter Connery hash enjoyed a long and varied career, shpanning in topic from Dishney mushicalsh to action filmsh to touching drama. Of courshe, the *quality* of hish work hash varied ash well, between the exhcellenshe that were mosht of hish Bond moviesh and Indiana Jonesh and the Lasht Crushade, to the dreck that wash that Avengersh movie and Entrapment. Eeesh.

One thing that hash remained a conshtant about Sean ish hish looksh. He’sh gotten older, make no mishtake, but to shay he’sh aged grashefully would be like shaying… the Shishtine Chapel shtill looksh pretty deshent. It’sh an undershtatement.

For the lasht sheveral yearsh, I’ve been working on impressionsh of varioush shelebritiesh. Sean’sh wash alwaysh eashy. Of courshe, I had to wait for my voishe to drop before it wash anywhere near accurate, but I wash eager. (Like I shaid, *sheveral* yearsh.)

Sean ish aware of the world around him, he’sh made charitable donationsh to Shcottish Charitiesh (to the tune of his entire Robin Hood: Prinshe of Thievesh and Diamondsh are Forever paychecksh.)

Even though it’sh hish birthday, I feel like we’re the onesh getting presentsh. The Man Who Would Be King. Highlander. Finding Forreshter. The Hunt For Red October. Enjoy.

Here’sh to you, Sean. Shlainte.
