a warm summer's day. Ah, young woman's life is radically changed in a matter of hours, 20 hours and 40 minutes. To be exact.

When you get discouraged, consider this fellow. He dropped out of grade school to run a country store and went broke. It took him 15 years to pay off his bills. He then ran for the U. S. House of Representatives and lost twice. He ran for US Senate and again lost twice. He delivered a speech to an indifferent audience, which became an historical classic.

He was born Thomas Sean Connery in Fountain Bridge, Scotland, on August 25th 1930. The son of Joe, a truck driver, and Ufa Mia, a 20 year old housewife. The neighborhood was known as the Street of 1000 Smells for the stench of the local rubber mill and several breweries that always filled the air. Connery's home was a two room flat in a tenement land where the infant slept in a bureau drawer because his parents couldn't afford a crib.
