Who knows.


I'm waiting to hear about the latest scandal involving Father Francis Mulcahy.

I understand his airplane had a stopover in Boston once.

He got his honorable discharge after his Uncle Ed passed away and went home to the family farm in Ottumwa, Iowa :-)

Do you think he rear-ended a Piper Cub on the tarmac?

Hey, I like M*A*S*H.

Sure, Alan Alda is liberal city, but Hawkeye was fine. And the guy who wrote the book was a Republican.

As a veteran of the Korean War, I couldn't care less. A Wuss like Alda wouldn't have lasted two weeks in Korea.

I'd tell you, but then I'd have to kill you.

Gads, these people aren't aging well anyway. Alda looked like death warmed over 5 years ago. What are they going to do, use walkers to get to the OR?

The movie was a hoot (very risque in the early 70's) but the TV show was only clever for a couple of seasons, then it became the Phil Donahue Show in fatigues.

Radar dropped out of the show near the end.

The show became a pulpit for liberal PC crap, and stopped being funny after everybody became fast friends. The episode I hated most was when the sanctimonious Pierce gave some Marine colonel hell for going back after his unit's KIAs. "Hawkeye" ranted some interminable sermon about "grim calculus" and the "devil's ledger of death." Of course, he would have been dumped headfirst into a latrine if the Marine had been for real.

Besides, anything with Mike Farrell in it has to suck.

Yep, another reunion, anniversary, where are they now, lame-a** "special". Hollyweird and it's Generation X writers really can't come up with any new ideas, can they?

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

Pretty bad humor. Personally I don't think the priests did it...it was their altar egos.

Amen to that! I used to really like him. Then I grew up.

They ran out of botox and sutures in LA trying to put Loretta Swit back together.

Mike Farrell is such a pussbag...

And if the priests had access to the nuns it could have become a different habit.
