Was he a carpenter? (I remember reading about an actor who had worked as a carpenter before becoming an actor, but it may have been someone else that I am thinking of).

I think you're thinking of Harrison Ford (apparently he has a perfect plumb!). Sean Connery wasn't a carpenter. Hmm... I'll try to think of a clue...

Harrison Ford, yes, that's the one who was the carpenter.
Yes, I think a clue would be nice :-)

So... a clue about Sean Connery's previous employment:
It wasn't his lines he delivered back then.

I know of five jobs he held before he was an actor. Six, if you count his stint in the Navy.
Which one you looking for?Milkman, sailor, bricklayer, lifeguard, coffin polisher (seriously), body-builder/model.

(I met Sean Connery once. He sure has charisma!)

OK; and yes indeed: the idea of James Bond as a onetime coffin polisher is somewhat ironic...

Sorry.
Um...
I can't think of anything, so at the risk of sounding like a psych textbook:
Who said
(not exact quote..)
'psychology after first bargaining away its soul... and then going out of its mind... seems now to have lost all consciousness'
Or alternatively:
Which three stages of psychology is the quote referring to?????

As Burt (1962) writes, "psychology, having first bargained away its soul and then gone out of its mind, seems now...to have lost all consciousness" (p.229).
http://www.personalityresearch.org/papers/pizzurro.html
Now I think it goes...
Psychology - study of the psyche / soul...
But then it became the 'science' of the mind / consciousness (hence bargained away its soul) round the time of structuralism...Then it 'went out of its mind' when it became the science ('just like physics' heh heh) of behaviour - behaviourism...
Then it lost consciousness with modern cognitive psychology because it talks of mental processes in terms of 'information processing' and doesn't mention consciousness much at all...
But that was a hard one so I'll give it to you.
Your up :-)

"With Descartes, psychology lost its soul and found its mind: with British Empiricists, soul lost its mind and found its consciousness: with Watson and the Behaviorists, soul lost its consciousness and found is reflexes."
> Your up :-)
Uh, I think you need to do another question. Yours didn't really get answered, IMHO.
