Happy birthday... although I'm not sure "happy" is the correct word to use when you reach this age. I usually just nod grimly, then change the subject.

I have the same birthday as Magnum (not Tom Selleck). He's exactly 25 years older than me.

I hadn’t noticed. Well done and happy birthday!

Thanks Pahonu.

Many happy returns, T.Q.!!

If you plan to surf-ski alone on your birthday please stay close to shore. Lest some turkeys spoil your day.

Oh, and you must have missed the episode "Fifty". That's from the unreleased 9th season of the show. Some day you may come across it. In the meantime enjoy "Forty".

Where's my present?

I was expecting you to send fifty 'Cookies' to my house.

Hasn't stopped me yet and I have passed that milestone already.

As Jimmy Buffett sings "there's still so much to be done".

I just recently saw the movie RUNAWAY from 1984. What are people's thoughts on it? I thought it was pretty good. Liked the killer robots idea. Selleck was good, his female partner VERY HOT (hotter than Kirstie Alley whom he seemed to be more interested in), and Gene Simmons totally over the top in his personification of pure evil. He played the same "pure evil" character 2 years later opposite Rutger Hauer in WANTED: DEAD OR ALIVE. Those killer "spider robots" gave me the creeps but did anyone else automatically flash to ALIENS with those little scurrying aliens? I wonder if James Cameron wasn't watching this movie and liked those spiders and decided to "borrow" this idea for his aliens 2 years later. That's what I kept thinking the whole time. I thought the finale atop the construction site elevator (with those spiders attacking Selleck) was really tense!! Best part of the movie!

Yes, exactly. I thought Cynthia Rhodes was far more attractive (both physically and character) than Kirstie Alley.

I watched this movie a couple times back in the mid 80's, then it disappeared. I searched for it for years on VHS, but couldn't find it anywhere. I don't know why it was so hard to find. It took me another couple decades before I found it - on DVD.

It's not quite as good as I remembered. The robot spiders are great, special effects are good, most of the acting is good and the basic story is fine - but the home scenes with the robot maid are cringeworthy and the kid is a bit annoying. It's pretty dumb that police officers would be sent to farms and work sites to disable runaway robots. I can understand the homicidal robots, but not just malfunctioning robots.

Maybe I'll edit the movie to remove the dumb stuff and turn it into a great movie.
