For the Roger Moore fanatics out there, here's a question for you: Has the raised eyebrow trick ever done wonders for you?

I once had a girlfriend who seemed to enjoy it.

But since it wasn't done intentionally, most, correspondingly, didn't notice.

And then there were some that thought I looked like an utter bl--dy moron.

The raised eyebrow has done wonders for Pierce Brosnan wouldn't you say? They even have Pierce's rising eyebrow in the game Nightfire.

You guys remember when Roger was asked what his acting range was?

He replied "My acting range is from one raised eyebrow to another."

Of course he said it with a straight face, or a sly smile - you decide...

I only wish I could pull it off like Roger did. It would work wonders for me since I'm going to a college which the Female-Male ratio is 7-1.:)

"He replied "My acting range is from one raised eyebrow to another.""

----I have heard of that Moore quote, the reporter who asked the question was female.


"I only wish I could pull it off like Roger did. It would work wonders for me since I'm going to a college which the Female-Male ratio is 7-1."

----A college where the ratio of girls to guys is 7to1 - raise those eyebrows all over the place my friend. THink carefully which Bond one-liners you're going to use.

How about - "Well I had lunch, but I seemed to have missed dessert." - Isn't that what Bond said to the Blonde in TSWLM before they start schmoozing?????

ALL THE BEST!

7 to 1 is the perfect ratio for the Roger-brow

Well, I must say that (with tongue firmly-in-cheek ala Mr. Moore :)) that you suck, Mr. 7:1...course maybe it would give me a leg up down here in Florida, where it's 14% female...:)

I think the, "Well I had lunch, but I seemed to have missed dessert," line would be great here. I'm an illustration major and I've always wanted to use Lazenby's line from OHMSS... imagine if a lady-friend came up to my room and asked to see one of my drawings or pictures (this is where the Lazenby line comes in), "But you're a picture yourself...and twice as nice in the firelight." Hey it worked for him twice in the film, it's got to work at least once for me. If not, theres six other girls with which to chose from.:)

"You're not going to take advantage of me, are you?"

"The thought never crossed my mind..." (raised Roger-brow)
