Another staple of my childhood gone. Thursday night was always “Magnum” night at my grandmother’s. She loved that show.

I remember him in “Chinatown” and “Up The Creek”.

RIP, “Higgie Baby”.

Ah, those were the days. And Tom Selleck was skinny back then.

Thanks Fiddlestix! I don’t really remember John Hillerman’s character on that show, but it appears to be a prototype of Higgins.

That DVD set is one of the favorites around here.

It was bought not long after release.

Quality series.

Mears, you are one amazing lady, then. You get around on the Internet like a pro and have all your facilities.

As a woman, you will already have a longer average lifespan than us men. I would expect that to continue, based on your energy levels.

I salute you and hope to reach your age!

When the local radio station announced his death they said that he played Tom Selleck's sidekick. Apparently the script writer never actually watched Magnum.

[Scrambler Bob]

Ferrari perhaps?

[zerosix]

That and the fabulous Ferrari 308mg.

[Mears]

Thank you.
