My Bond moment: On December 25 (year eludes me) after my siblings left to go to their inlaws, I started watching the Playoff game between Miami & Kansas City. After a few minutes I told my mom I was going to see "Diamonds are Forever." When I got home after seeing a great movie, the Dolphins & Chiefs were into their first overtime. During the 2nd OT Miami won (grrrr). It was the longest NFL game played. Diamonds (co staring Jill St John & Jimmy Dean- the Sausage/Singer)is still 1 of my favorite Bond movies.

Great memory @prof b a Lipp Now forever the Dolphins and Chiefs will be connected to Diamonds Are Forever 💎 I think Diamonds Are Forever is my favorite Bond song! I haven’t watch the movie in years and I will have to go back and watch it and think of you today! Have a beautiful weekend! 💖💖💖💖💖

Of all your stories this is my favourite, I'm sorry but I've been a Connery fan since was I 5 or so and first saw Dragonheart!!!!!!!!!

Monaco's history is fascinating, definitely gonna reread this post for just that I must admit it didn't all register as much as it should have, at the shock of you meeting Connery.

He's an amazing actor, and talent loved him also in Highland, Indiana Jones and countless other movies (including as Mr. Bond). You're really blessed to have met him madame. It seems your career has been well for lack of a better word simply magical.
