Roger Moore and I were both Saints

Roger Moore and I were both Saints

Before James Bond, there was the Saint.

I wanted to be like the Saint so I bought the car he drove with astonishing skill in the series: The Saint.

Alas, Roger Moore is gone and will be missed by millions of 007 fans.

I still have my 1800 Volvo —

The closest I ever got to being the Saint was when I was a latter-day Saint in New Zealand.

I dunked converts. https://goo.gl/ktXhwI

Moore ducked bullets. https://goo.gl/bI7PPk

In the exotic South Pacific I was a total failure as a Mormon Missionary.

If only the authorities had given me a license to kill, I might have converted more natives.
