This drives my boyfriend bonkers BTW. <BR/>At some point on this wonderful blog, we need to discuss continuity on MASH, because I notice, after all these years,there are A LOT of inconsistencies. For example: is Hawkeye an only child, or did he in fact have a sister? In season 1 I swear he has a sweater knitted for him by a sister; but then I think he refers to himself as an only child later on, than in season 4, he says the only deleiver he has ever made was taking his nephew to his sister's house.

How difficult was it to write a scene involving a dog? Any interesting stories in that vein?VP81955https://www.blogger.com/profile/11792390726196611188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-1151409057616850172006-06-27T04:50:00.000-07:002006-06-27T04:50:00.000-07:00This is such awesome blog, Ken!
