Fat Man and Little Boy (1989)

Based on this information I found on the internet, this television premiered during the time I was a Prisoner of War in Libya.

The date 7/24/1969 is when Apollo 11 returned to Earth. I recognize the date 11/26/1976 as when I landed on the Jupiter moon Callisto before my 4/14/1977 return to Earth.

From 3/3/1959 to 7/24/1969 is: 3796 days
From 7/5/1966 to 11/26/1976 is: 3797 days

"Fast Times" (1986)
TV-Series

Release Date: 5 March 1986 (USA)



The name of the ice cream store where Phoebe's character, "Linda," works is named "Swensons." I assume I created that detail in the script because the actress who portrays "Ben Cartwright's" second wife in "Bonaza" was named Swenson.

I have also noted that I think Phoebe's character worked at an ice cream store because of the U.S. Navy slang about the summer white uniform that sailors wear. I also believe her uniform at that ice cream store had red stripes on it because the space suit I wore on one of my missions to the Earth's moon had red stripes on it to identify that I was the commander of the flight.

From 12/29/1932 to 7/16/1963 is: 1593 weeks and 5 days

Inga Swenson (born December 29, 1932 in Omaha, Nebraska) is an American actress.
Swenson was a member of Alpha Phi sorority at Northwestern University where she studied in their famed Drama Department. Swenson is best known to American audiences for her portrayal of "Gretchen Kraus", the autocratic and acerbic German cook (later Head Housekeeper and Budget Director) on the TV sitcom Benson. She got the part by appearing in a multi-episode stint as "Ingrid Svenson", birth mother of Corinne Tate (Diana Canova), on the tv sitcom Soap. Both series were created by Susan Harris and produced by Witt-Thomas-Harris Productions.


Earlier in her career, Swenson had a notable turn on the iconic TV western series Bonanza in two episodes: "Inger, My Love" (1962) and "Journey Remembered" (1963). The appearances were significant in that she played Ben Cartwright's second wife who is Hoss's mother. She took a brief leave of absence from her starring role in "110 in the Shade" on Broadway to appear in "Journey Remembered."


Also early in her career Swenson was acclaimed for her supporting roles in the films Advise and Consent (1962) and The Miracle Worker (1962).


She is a trained lyric soprano and starred on Broadway in New Faces (circa 1956), The First Gentleman (1959) and received Tony Award nominations for Best Actress in a Musical for her performances in 110 in the Shade (1964) and Baker Street (1965).
