Hi! My name is XXXXX I'm XX and I'm your fan Sean .I watch all your movies since when I was child, you are so charmous and elegant.I will be happy if you send me a email with photos. I'm brasilian but I live in XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX for a litle time I LOVE YOU !
Sean, I LOVE YOU so much, so much....... > Kissssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
I wait you......
I was always surprised at how few people ever made the connection between my name, Sean Conner, and that of the only true James Bond, Sean Conner**y** [1] (and even more so, how many people misspell my first name, given that S-E-A-N Conner**y** is so well known). I suppose that missing “y” is enough to throw the connection off and thus, about one stranger a year (if that) will make the connection.
Looks like I have this year's connection; seems that a woman just sent me email thinking I'm Sean Conner**y**! Even weirder is that I won't come up for a search for Sean Conner**y** [2], and I'm not even the first result on on my own name! [3] Oh … hold on … yes, I am first for a Google search from where she currently lives (somewhere in Europe).
Well, that's assuming she even used Google [4]—I think there are other search engines out there, but don't quote me on that.
Whoa!
She even sent pictures!
Gee … I hate to break it to her that I'm not Sean Conner**y** … it definitely took some guts to not only send an email, but to include the pictures as well (not that there's anything revealing in them). Who knows, maybe the next time she's in Lower Sheol here we can get together for coffee and have a laugh over this.
