Sorry, guys, but I'm a compulsive list-maker...
10 signs that You've Watched Too Much Magnum,PI (as if one
COULD watch too much Magnum...)

1. You greet everyone you meet with "Hi, Guy!"
2. You cheer for the Detroit Tigers, even though you hate
baseball
3. You incessantly ask your friends for favors, and tell
them to "put it on your tab."
4. You refer to your boss as "Icepick."
5. The only exclamation you can say is, "OH...MY...GOD!"
6. You keep smirking into your own imaginary camera.
7. You are determined to wear only floral shirts and
shorts, even if it's snowing outside.
8. You have an uncontrollable urge to run from dogs.
9. You offer to over-see security for your apartment
complex--in lieu of rent, of course.
10.You refer to your own pathetic home or office as "The
Estate."

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm about to enjoy a couple of chili dogs and an Old
Dusseldorf.

lads", depending on your mood.
