The Final Countdown (1985)
Sci-fi, mystery, war drama--it's got them all. Fun to watch whan you don't know what's going on. Fun to watch again when you know more than the first time. Fantastic Navy plane scenes comparable to Top Gun.

I started hiding under the covers with a flashlight when I was about 8 years old, so that I could keep reading long after the official "lights out" signal had been given. Perhaps you know and love a little girl who has similar tendencies. These 6 books: The Secret of the Old Clock; The Hidden Staircase; The Bungalow Mystery; The Mystery at Lilac Inn; The Secret at Shadow Ranch; and The Secret of Red Gate Farm, are boxed together in a 75th anniversary set. She may ask for more, but these should keep her entertained until the end of 2008. Good gifting.

Add Jameson Park to my adolescent crush list. I was so jealous when he married Kirstie Alley (then, just the "Vulcan girl") that I was in a mood for days...

I had a massive crush on Jon, if you must know. Massive. And if you insist on knowing more, I once ran into Erik Estrada in a motel jacuzzi in San Diego. It was a let-down.

It's going to look fantastic on my end table. But damn, if it's even half as tasty as the title I'll be a happy girl. from amazon.com: CONVICTS: They are hardcore career criminals, tough, unregenerate wise guys who are so smart that they spend most of their lives in prison. They live for rape, robbery, narcotics, violence and murder – and that’s when they’re behind bars. JAILBIRDS: Here are the gutter sweepings of the jailhouse system: second-rate, penny-ante crooks, thieves, dope peddlers, strong-arm goons and scam artists. They dream only of getting up enough nerve to pull off some heavy scores and graduate to big-time plunder and murder. AND REFORM SCHOOL GIRLS: Forming switchblade-wielding girl gangs, taking their first shots of heroin, making “easy money” by selling their fresh young bodies, and attaching themselves to up-and-coming gun punks and triggermen, they’re strictly poison in a candy wrapper. CONVICTS, JAILBIRDS AND REFORM SCHOOL GIRLS –singly or in combination, they spell “Trouble” for decent citizens and the police as witnessed in this double fistful collection of true crime tales from the 1950s.

Before Jan Michael Vincent became an alcoholic, he starred in this campy and kind of cool spy series.... Amazon.com Hip spy shows with covert agencies within agencies--like Alias and 24--are missing only one thing: A super-duper armor-plated helicopter with "nuclear-tipped shrike missiles." In the action series Airwolf, a mysterious national security agency called the Firm constructs a "Mach-one-plus chopper that can kick butt," only to have it stolen by the nefarious scientist who designed it (David Hemmings, Blowup, Barbarella). Desperate, the Firm turns to Stringfellow Hawke (Jan Michael Vincent), a soulful, cello-playing, art-loving, eagle-watching, guilt-ridden master pilot. Hawke refuses to help unless the Firm searches for his brother, who went MIA in 'Nam. Of course, he succeeds in his mission, but until the Firm fulfills its side of the bargain, he keeps the chopper--but also agrees to fly covert missions in exchange for tips about government efforts to retrieve Airwolf. This elaborate setup proves surprisingly durable. The combat scenes in Airwolf are clumsily edited, but the scripts--though firmly in the cheesy techno-thriller vein of Robert Ludlum and Tom Clancy--are pleasantly zippy. While Vincent may have gone on to a straight-to-video career (appearing in such sterling titles as Hidden Obsession, Indecent Behavior, and Animal Instincts), he’s a persuasive and sexy pilot; he's got the same kind of rangy, athletic physicality that makes Kevin Costner convincing as an athlete. Add to this mix the ever-zesty Ernest Borgnine (Marty, The Wild Bunch) and it's clear why Airwolf outlived the similar series Blue Thunder. Most episodes feature international skullduggery with foreign agents trying to steal Airwolf and sell it to the Soviets or Libya, but there are enough clever details to keep you from objecting to the larger absurdity of the all-powerful helicopter. Guest stars include Shannen Doherty (Beverly Hills 90210) and David Carradine (Kill Bill). It's too bad Hemmings didn't become a regular; his sadistic, lecherous traitor gave the two-hour pilot some real juice. --Bret Fetzer

If you like to spend your Halloween curled up with a spine-tingling horror story, then try this cautionary tale by James Patterson. A little more subtle than Stephen King, but equally eerie.

I'm such the thriller fan. I can remember the first times I saw Psycho and The Birds and I instantly loved Hitchcock and his work. It's great to have the whole collection to really appreciate his "masterpieces"

The first Sherlock Holmes Chess Set, the brown and ivory one featured in the main photo, is my favorite. Thus spake the Chess Store: "The famous fictional private detective, created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is featured as the King in this remarkable chess set. His opponents are led by his arch enemy, Professor Moriarty, with the fearsome Hound of Baskervilles as the Knight." I just like that it's very simple and classy. As to the other set, it's not my style but it is more completely described by the store: "Beautifully hand decorated in shades of green and grey, the characters are based on the original drawings that appeared in Strand Magazine in 1890 to accompany the Sherlock Holmes stories. Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson face their greatest adversary, Professor Moriarty, across the chess board. The set also features Mrs. Hudson, Inspector Lestrade, Irene Adler, Colonel Moran and the infamous Hound of Baskervilles." I guess all the inlay and the like is why it's $200 more than the simpler one I prefer. Apparently, I'm a cheap date.
