He also played Major Anthony "Tony" Nelson, a much more likeable guy.

A bad day at golf is better than a good day at work.

I've never seen the first episode of Dallas. Never appealed to me in the least.

I definitely can agree on the soaps; my wife watches one everyday and another one occasionally. I keep telling her that if you watch one, you know what's going on on all of them. All of them are total BS and a complete waste of time in my opinion.

I've lost count of the number of years of my, and family, lives have been lost in the past, due to my Wives insistence on being indoors, at home, to watch various "TV Soap", etc, dross, instead of exploring the real World, outside!.

I have since spent the past 37+ years without either!

My 15" Portable Television Set collects dust in the corner, whilst I do; "Other Things"...
..and my previous Wives are;..."Somewhere Else"...probably watching TV Soaps!... Grin

My satellite TV is normally set to Sonic Music channels. Normally either oldies (50's, 60's, 70's) or instrumental/easy listening . Makes for an expensive radio, but at least there's no darn commercials to annoy me.... Wink

I used to watch Dallas as a child as it came on either right after 'The Dukes of Hazzard' or one hour later, I don't rightly recall. Rest in peace, Larry. Cry
