Hi Dave,
DD> Never saw that movie. Nor did I watch Lassie on the boob tube. I did,
DD> however, watch Rin-Tin-Tin on a regular basis. Although I found "F
DD> Troop" more realistic. Bv)=
RH> Both "M*A*S*H" and "F Troop" were good at portraying what the Army was
RH> not. "McHale's Navy" did the same for the Navy and "Gomer Pyle, USMC"
RH> did it for the Marines. They were all fun to watch tho. BTW, did you
RH> know that the opening scene of "Gomer" used actual Marines in the
RH> filming? I've always thought they must have had a hard time keeping a
RH> straight face as Gomer was being "chewed out" by Sgt Carter.
DD> Jarheads learn early on to keep their heads down nand their yaps shut.
DD> M*A*S*H was based on Richard Hooker's 1968 novel MASH: A Novel About
DD> Three Army Doctors. I've read the book. And saw the original movie
DD> with Elliot Gould and Donald Sutherland as the stars.
I've never seen the movie or read the book, just enjoyed the tv series.
DD> Hooker was actually in Korea and served at/in a MASH. So, there nwas a
DD> lot of truth there. The final episode "Goodbye, Farewell and Amen"
DD> was the most-watched television broadcast in the US from 1983-2010,
DD> and it remains both the most-watched finale of any television series
DD> and the most-watched episode of a scripted series.
I saw (most of) it as a movie while we were in HI. Do own the whole
series on DVD, thanks to a brother, just never sat down and watched it
again.
DD> These are alleged to be "doggie treats". They will make
DD> pretty decent "people treats" as well. -- UDD
RH> Nothing in there I'd turn my nose up at. If it had peanut butter, as
RH> I've seen some dog treat recipies, I'd gladly leave it to the pups.
DD> You seem to be with P-Nut buitter the way I am with bologna. How are
DD> you with other nut butters/spreads. Like Nutella or similar. I do fine
DD> with other lunchmeats (even SPAM) but bologna triggers mt gag reflex.
I like Nutella, probably because of all the chocolate in it, but don't
really care for the other nut butters. None of them turn my stomach like
peanut butter, just don't care for them.
We used to buy a lot of inexpensive turkey based cold cuts when the
girls were younger, taking their lunch to schools. Went with a better
quality one after they moved out but when Wegman's opened up, I started
buying their deli meats (usually ham, turkey or roast beef). Bought some
bologna once, a few months ago and will not buy it again. It just tasted
nasty. Maybe if I'd fried it.................
