    Remember watching:

    * the Watergate hearings

    * Laugh-In

    * the first season of Saturday Night Live

    * the Apollo missions

    * when the Six Million Dollar Man --- "We can rebuild him ... Stronger ... Faster ..." --- finally hooked up with The Bionic Woman, and you wondered if they had super-incredible bionic sex

    * when Buddy Ebsen played a more sophisticated role as Barnaby Jones

    * Chad Everett and "Medical Center"

    * and if you can remember who "John Gage" is and where he worked - bonus if you can name the place he visited most frequently in his line of work, too

    Not even hard. John Gage was Roy DeSoto's partner on Squad 51 and was a frequent visitor at Rampart Hospital where he'd hit on the nurses -- except for Dixie McCall because she was too old for him.

    Remember watching The Real Roxanne's "Roxanne is on a Roll" and thinking, "Man, she is one hot Puerto Rican."

    There was a great pub in Burlington called the Pig & Whistle. They'd serve anyone--as long as you didn't need a booster seat.

    Old Tony, you're on it.

    Emergency! was the name of the show. Julie London played Dixie.

    Casty, here's your answer to who lived on 17230 Valley Springs Lane.

    The Munsters lived on 1313 Mockingbird Lane. I never knew where the Addams Family resided.

    Let's go ask Cousin Itt...
