Timothy Dalton: happy birthday 2009!

It's Happy Birthday, 007 today -- wish birthday wishes going to my personal favorite of the James Bonds. Don't get me wrong -- I like them all! But Timothy Dalton is my favorite. Why? I think it's because I actually believed James Bond as a real person in his two movies. The other actors were consistently "tongue in cheek," and the movies had the quality of satire or even spoof. In the Timothy Dalton movies, though, you had a greater sense of reality, and I guess I liked that!

It also doesn't hurt that Tim Dalton had devilish good looks, a gorgeous voice ... and great legs! Would you believe he's 64 years young today?! (Good grief, that would make AG...)
