Hard to believe, but Sean Connery celebrates his 80th birthday today.

It makes me feel a little melancholy, I loved 60s entertainment, I grew up with it... the Beatles, Bond, Star Trek, Broadway Joe Namath and Spaghetti Westerns, etc. That's a whole lotta cool listed there. It's hard for my brain to fathom that those hip 60 personalities are either gone, or have become grandpa's.

Happy Birthday Sean, the greatest Bond of all and the reason I loved The Untouchables.

Funny we've got threads about Sandy Frank at 81 and Sean Connery at 80. I'd much rather be Sean Connery at 80. He's still cool and Sandy Frank never was. Plus he looks a hell of a lot better.

Connery is not only James Bone to me...

But he's the heckler in Celebrity Jeopardy!

80 years old but he's still got the strength to slap his wife when she gets out of line lol (sorry)

That "unfortunate" interview aside, I'm a big fan of his work.

Well, an 80th birthday for Sean Connery would be special if he wasn't already an immortal.
