Considered by many the quintessential James Bond, Sean Connery turns 74 today. You may not know that Connery's successor, Roger Moore, is actually three years his senior. Or that Connery wore a toupee in all his films as Bond.
It's also Regis Philbin's 73rd birthday. Philbin--who last week passed Hugh Downs for the Guinness world record number of hours on television--has somehow remained genuinely self-deprecating about his fame. He returned to the East Coast in 1983, the first season of his ABC morning show, and is still the kid from the Bronx who loves his Yankees and stays true to his school (Notre Dame).
Speaking of Regis, my friend D is taping an episode of the daytime Millionaire, hosted by Meredith Viera, in mid-September. If D decides to use me as his Phone-a-Friend, I hope I can be more helpful to him than Téa Leoni was to David Duchovny when he appeared:
"Honey, you're so screwed!"
