I told him today his new name will be the Six Million Dollar Man. He got a good laugh out of that one. Glad to hear him keeping his sense of humor. He has been through a lot. Lost his wife in February to COVID. Do you remember the television show The Six Million Dollar Man, with Lee Majors? It was back from the 1970's. My sister was always a huge fan of the hottie, as she called Lee Majors. He was married to Farrah Fawcett for a few years as well.

Yeah, I usually got home in time to watch the sign off. I didn't even make it home in time for the Tonight show.

@CarolDM I am sorry for the loss of his wife because of this virus. I do remember The Six Million Dollar Man and he looks so young in the picture you put here. I used to watch it too. So glad he will go home from his bypass surgery.

I remember the Six Million Dollar Man well. Losing a wife and then having sextuplet bypass surgery is rough. My husband had bypass surgery; and that's a tough recovery. I wish him well and hope he is feeling better soon.

Six blockages must have been very painful. How is he doing now? Sorry to know about his wife's loss. A very tough phase for him indeed.

I think he hit the jackpot with six, didn't he! Lee Majors is from Kentucky. When I take the slow route to the Smokies (through Cumberland Gap) I go right through his hometown of Middleboro.

I loved the show "Six Million Dollar Man" a lot since the stories were very good like "The Price of Liberty."

Mike and I watched the show a few months back. Then we started with the Bionic Woman and found out a lot of the episodes were repeats from the 6 Million Dollar Man. As kids we didn't care. I am glad he is doing well with everything he has been through.
