• I've Got Foes in High Places
  

  To this Stupidocles fellow,

  Sonny boy, I served with Sean Connery.  I knew Sean Connery.  Sean Connery was a friend of mine.  And Sonny boy, you ain't no Sean Connery! 
  
  --Senator Ben Lloydtsen, D-AR (Age  85)

  P.S.  How'd you like that Octogenarian Onslaught, Sonny boy?  Bet a foolish young whippersnapper like you didn't expect this kind of savvy internet "slam" from one of your elders (and wisers)!

  Dear Honorable Senator,

  I take it you are referring to the vocal snippet from my entry "A Fall From Grace".  With all due respect, Senator Oldtsen, I think you are confusing celebrities:  Khan Shonnery is a completely different person than Sean Connery.  Mr. Connery is the Scottish actor famous for his portrayal of James Bond, and Mr. Shonnery is a Canadian chef and hip hop artist, host of the low-carb cooking and dance show "The Wraps of Khan".  I'm not sure how you confused them, because the two men don't even sound remotely alike!  It is the latter's show that I appeared on and received my medal from before a rabid studio audience.  Thank you for allowing me to clarify.
