tales from an ordinary world

2002-05-25

I happened to notice that the M*A*S*H 30th anniversary show/presentation thing was on TV tonight - a reminder of times when I used to sit down and religiously watch that one show - there were others I'd occasionally watch, but nothing really dug itself into my head during those formative years like M*A*S*H.

Years later, a girl I was sorta keen on told me that M*A*S*H made her want to study medicine. I eventually worked up the courage to Ask Her Out, by which stage she'd cooled a little, but figured she'd give it a go. It wasn't very long before she worked out that was one of the only things we had in common.

Now the film's on TV while I write - the first time I've seen it - it feels good to have kept some things for later.
