Re: Are Magnum fans also Jimmy Buffett fans?

I've never been a fan of Jimmy Buffet, and don't listen to his music while I'm on my own, but I don't mind his music when I'm out with friends.

Re: Momentum Sea Quartz 30

I'm thinking about joining the Momentum crowd. The shirt deal is a nice touch, and I think it's enough to get me to pull the trigger on this. That, and my wife is telling me to do it - lol :magnum: I have a Chronosport SQ30, but because of its age I will not take it in a pool. I take my Steinhart (a...

I'm sure we knew the tennis courts were gone, but I had forgotten that, and it was sad to see.

That's awesome. The shirt, the hat, the watch. Love it.

Re: Limbo (7.22)

Unpopular opinion time. I don't know how to rank this one: It is an excellent episode, but I truly dislike it. I dislike it because in my mind it didn't have the correct ending, and I would have hated CBS if this had been left as the series finale. Now, there are parts of it that I like -- the Dick...

Re: My new 1980s obsession

My sons & I reworked my mancave setup this weekend. Gone are the PlayStation (original, bought 1990s) and Xbox (original, bought when new in the market). Added are a Wii U and Nintendo Switch. Still, the 2600 and 5200 get the most play. :)

Re: Laura (7.18)

I thought I had posted in this thread before, but I didn't see it, so maybe not. Anyway, I find this episode extremely difficult to watch, and not just because of the Phil Collins music (lol). Honestly, I don't mind the music so much, but man, that subject material is just difficult. So sad and terr...

Re: CHiPs

It's a little cheesy, yes, but overall CHiPs has held up well over the years. I, too, watched it growing up, and still enjoy watching it with my kids.

Re: Any Spenser: For Hire Fans?

Cool, Tubi... I was wondering where you were watching that. I'll have to check that out - thanks!

I really want Remington Steele too, but we're not Prime Video members... oh well.

Re: I may be done with the internet, news and big tech!

I always look for the Hitchcock cameo as well, but I usually don't see it, so I have to look up cheats online so I know what time segment to look for him -- then I see it. :D

Re: I may be done with the internet, news and big tech!

Mr. Smith Goes to Washington is excellent, and I should watch that tomorrow with my kids... hmm... I'm a big Hitchcock fan too - both of those you mention were excellent. I really liked Rear Window, The Birds, Psycho, Rebecca, Foreign Correspondent, Dial M for Murder, Vertigo, Marnie. Really the lis...

Re: Buying a Rolex or Chronosport

Thanks. Here is a pic of my current frequently-worn watches, in no particular order. L-R: Mathey-Tissot Batman GMT; Steinhart Pepsi GMT; Chronosport SQ30; Seiko 6M25; Omega Seamaster DeVille (ca 1960-something). The Omega was my grandfather's, and my parents recently found it and gave it to me. It i...

Re: Buying a Rolex or Chronosport

I know it's heresy to remove a Tropic Strap from a Chronosport, but this morning I swapped my Tropic Strap and my Maen-brand NATO strap. I like the results here. Since I'll never take my Chronosport in the pool, I'll leave things this way until I actually buy a second Tropic Strap. https://i.ibb.co/...

Re: Buying a Rolex or Chronosport

I think this one looks nice on the NATO strap, and this NATO strap fits me very well. I just think I wouldn't like getting the strap wet, because it wouldn't be easy to dry. Rubber straps and stainless steel bracelets seem to me to be the winners for diving.

It's only 10ATM, but that's fine for the pool.
