Suppose that, instead of Magnum, TC, Rick and Higgins, there was a fifth member of the group. The fifth member is you. Okay, so you have to go back in time 25 years and be about 40 years old, but that shouldn't be a problem. :wink:

How do you fit in? TC's partner? Magnum's girlfriend? Gun runner who hangs with Rick? Served in Nam or met the guys later? You choose.
Higgins: You've washed the car?! How extraordinary. Why would you do such a thing?

Magnum's girlfriend? Are ya kidding me?

No, I'd be the lil guy in the fridge making sure it was stocked with cold refreshing Coops beer!

Amazing Coops!!! How small are you?! Are you by chance related to the guys working in a "banc-o-mat" or in the fire alarm?? :P
BTW, I`d have been the girl next door, all I had to do was admiring (word?) Magnum... *double sigh* :oops: As a good neighboor I `d help Higgins with paperwork and stuff to be around just in case Thomas would need me...
Sometimes I get so lucky, even I don`t believe it (TSM)

Not that I am or was any of these but just for the sake of an interesting character, I would be the hippy/surfer dude that hit the lottery and bought the property next door, seems to always have a party going on that gets on Higgins last nerve and talks in stoner/zen speak on the beach with TM that amazingly helps to solve some of his cases at times, or at the very least, put things in proper perspective..........

I'd be an old Navy buddy that served with the guys in Nam. I would surf ski and drink brews with TM. I could be an electronics guy that TM bums equipment off of for stakeouts.

I think I would be a former CIA/NSA agent who left the business. I met the guys in Nam and am now a Poli Sci professor in Hawaii. I still have contacts with my old work friends and can get TM information that Maggie Poole and Mac can't get. I'm friends with Higgins, who says things to Magnum like "Why don't you ever think things through, like she does?" Every now and again, if TM needs a female partner, as part of an investigation, I get to ride along.

Oh, I also have a cool house on the beach, not too far from Robin's Nest and drive an Alfa Romeo Spyder.
