He thinks people will believe that he's wearing the bandana as a fashion statement. In reality, it's to hide the fact that he's going bald.

Not that there's anything wrong with being bald. :-)

He's a consultant. Jeff the Skunk Baxter. Specialist in Missile Defense and one great guitar player. He was in Steely Dan before the Doobies.

I haven't read this entire thread, but I have yet to see a reference to Donnie Osmond here.

You cannot have a thread about the 70s without a heavy Osmond presence.

There were a couple of Osmond references and a picture, but I have no idea where they were.

Nope. Now she loves this guy (the one in the middle). And has since 1987, the debut of 21 JumpStreet.

and yes, Johnny Depp got his big break on 21 JumpStreet

Leif's younger sister, Dawn Lyn, was *Dodie Douglas* in the later years on My Three Sons.

I think it is what he said once on that show. It was often used in tv-spots for the show.

Just one of those things that worms into your brain and makes itself known at odd times.
