LOL, I know the feeling. My whole life I've been in Texas. My first winter in the Navy was in North Chicago at Great Lakes. Now that was COLD!!!

Icepick, really nice photo there. Whenever I see that part of the estate I always think of TM sitting on the wall, drinking his beer with tears in his eyes at the beginning of "Mac's Back". For some reason that scene really gets me. TS is such an underrated actor. http://www.magnum-mania.com/images/...

Wasn't that back in the 30's or thereabouts?

Very cool Coops . Living in Orlando, I get to see a lot of the space program. We have a time share on Coca Beach (45 minutes from Orlando) and the last two years we got to see the Shuttle go up while at Cocoa Beach. We can see it from Orlando too. Just the other day the Shuttle boomed (boom-boom) o...

Very cool Coops ! The guy's a living legend! I would have been tempted to say, "Hey, where's your vest big guy?" ;) If you are watching "When We Left Earth" on the Discovery Channel you'll see Gene wearing the same vest he wore during his presentation; the Apollo XIII vest. When the presentation wa...

If you're a Magnum fan you HAVE to be influenced to drive some kind of cool car. Come on, at least SOME of you have to have a car that isn't just a point A to point B commuter car. Show us what ya got! Me? 2002 Chevrolet Camaro Z28. I've been a Camaro/Firebird fan since I was 10 years old. This is m...

I'm stuck here at work and this music is making it oh so easy to just be here and stare at monitors.

Thanks guys!

I don't see a problem at all with Joey not being mentioned an any earlier episodes. There are many family secrets and other things that don't go mentioned, Joey is TM's. It's obvisous he's never cared for Frank and has harbored dark thoughts about his childhood after his father passed away. Children...

My desktop wallpaper. Coming back from my mom's funeral my wife snapped that pic. I then took the camera and snapped this pic:

What a lot of people fail to realise is how much the space program gave back in not just jobs but technologies. It was a huge mistake for Nixon to pull funding of the rest of the Apollo missions. That left NASA pretty much without a focus for 30 years. Since I live in the Clear Lake are, the home of...

3. Robert Duvall

Lonesome Dove is one of my all-time favorite mini's. I also loved Open Range & Broken Trail. Duvall is fantastic in westerns. Even modern ones like Tender Mercies.

That's funny you guys mentions wives. When I met mine for the first time I thought she was vietnamese because she had really long straight jet black hair. Turns out her mom is mexican and he dad caucasion. So it sort of killed 2 birds with one stone; asian/hispanic women...I love them both!

I've never thought of Carol as being annoying more like tolerated. Unlike some people here I don't feel any chemistry between her and TS. To me she was more like his sister than anything else. I liked Carol, just never really loved her as a character.

The REAL star of that show was the F4U Corsair.

So last Thursday night I got to meet one of my hero's, Mr. Gene "Failure Is Not An Option" Kranz. This was a thrill that is indescribable. It was a surprise from my mother in law, she bought my wife and I tickets to the annual Lunar Rendezvous "movie night" and what did we get? One hour of Gene Kran...
