Top my list. For Johnny Dollar, I prefer the Edmund O'Brien characterization. :)

7. There was once this radio show about space ships and shit |
|
back in the 70's.
I can't for the life of me remember the name.
When Star Wars was all the rage, it was out.

9. Do you mean, "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" perhaps? |
|
It started on BBC radio in 1978 and caught on here awful fast. :)
"This must be Thursday. I never could get the hang of Thursdays."
"I've got this terrible pain in all the diodes down my left side. I mean I've asked for them to be replaced, but no one ever listens."
The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't.
