Lee
Is the answer to all of the above Woodstock??? OK maybe thats why I don't know any of the answers,

Lee,

M*A*S*H is one of my all time favorite tv shows!!! I still watch it whenever I can. I'm so glad I logged on tonight to see PinkGirl had answered some questions. Welcome back Pink!!

3. Klinger from Corporal to Sergeant, Father Mulcahy from Lieutenant to Captain, Frank Burns from Captain to Lieutenat Col

5. Duke Forest

6. Lt. Col Blakes' kids were Molly and Andy

7. Harry Morgan played crazy General Bartford Hamilton Steele

8. Jamie Farr and Alan Alda

10. BJ - Peg, Col. Potter - Mildred, Margaret - Donald, Klinger - Laverne

11. Gary Burghoff

23. Hawkeye - Crabapple Cove, Maine

I'll check in again tomorrow.

12. Trapper John got his nickname after he 'trapped' a beauty queen in the toilet of the Boston-Maine express train.

19. To make his mother happy and/or for the money.

I didn't even see that you posted this last evening, Lee... you snooze you lose, I guess... Wow, Pink - you disappear for a week or two and then suddenly you appear like a lightning bolt with the answers! You have secretly been studying old episodes of jeopary, huh?

I'd like to buy a vowel.

Pink Girl Welcome back. I am glad you are feeling better. And you rock with all these answers.

15. Radar's cows were named Edna and Bessie.

16. All three actors guest starred on MASH and also played on the Andy Griffith show as Mille, Opie and Goober, respectively.

17. Henry's favorite drink was Scotch, Hawkeye's Gin, Margaret's Bourbon, Charles' Cognac and Radar's Grape Nehi.

Glad to see you back, Lady Pink! (BBB likes those numbers)

Yogi Berra is the best! My husband added one more that was on the AFLAAC commercial with the duck: "And they pay you in cash, which is just as good as money."

PinkGirl, you are so amazing. You are like a walking Google Search Girl!

Very good job everybody!

There was one wrong answer. No. 19, Frank Burns said he wanted to be a doctor for only one reason, what was that reason?

Lt. Leslie Scorch also was the name of a scrub nurse on the show Trapper John M.D.

Radar had two cows, the milk cow was named Edna after his mom and the show cow was named Bessie.

Finally, there were a couple other Richard Hooker novels besides the ones Pink Girl mentioned. 'M*A*S*H goes to Maine' was the best of the lot and 'M*A*S*H
goes to New Orleans' was a pretty good read as well.

So if someone guesses why Frank Burns decided to become a doctor I will post a Woodstock trivia challenge.

Since it is my wrong answer I will try to correct it.

19. The reason Frank Burns became a doctor was to clear up his skin.

Is that it, or are there other reasons floating around out there?

I think Shelia is waiting for the Woodstock quiz so you had better get to posting!

Thanks Lee for keeping us so entertained!

Yeah Gerri!

You got it 100% correct. Good Job!

Oh, and the Woodstock quiz will be in a couple of days.

Lee

Joe Cocker! Aw dammit, I'm sorry, it's that seeing into the future thing again. I'll just wait for Lee's question. The Rolling Stones! Sorry again, I'll leave now.

Come on Lee.......I'm ready!!!
Dont mean to jump the gun ....but.....

JIMI HENDRIX!!!!!

Awwww Harrie and Bill:

Those were two of the answers. Now I'm going to have to find two other questions. See, I told you Harrie was an evil genius! She was using the International Date Line to travel to tomorrow and she read the internet, then crossed back across the line and posted today. Its cheating but its cheating in a very clever way. And Bill, well there isn't a rule against seeing into the future but you need to give Pink Girl a chance to win.

What am I, chopped liver? In going back, I noticed that I answered 13 questions and PinkGirl answered 13 questions - out of 25. We both answered question #3 and depending on who was right, one of us answered 12 correctly and the other 13. Pretty darn close.

I'm just saying......

Thanks Pink, I didn't think I was chopped liver, but then I was starting to doubt everything.

Good point about the bunny bowl and Lee's refusal to part with it. He probably thinks he's pretty safe because we won't give our addresses to him. However, at some point I just might be okay with scheduling a drop off in neutral territory. For now I guess we just have to settle for the satisfaction that we did our best - the line I always tried to sell my kids.

(It's great to have you back http://her2support.org/vbulletin/images/icons/icon7.gif)

Gerri:

My humble apologies to you. You are one motivated quiz answering fool. And I mean fool in the good way. Its just I never thought of you as the type who would elbow her own grandmother in the throat to win like ........

Ummmm..... thats not going quite the way I had hoped. Let's just say you did a good job and leave it at that.

Lee


PS

If you would elbow your grandmother in the throat to win the quiz, then I apologize for that too.

Lee,

Are you calling PinkGirl old?

Ahh, now I get it Pink, Lee was slamming you not me. When I first read his reply I did not notice his overt reference to you ("like...").

Lee, Pink has a point about your poor grandma who has locked up for so long now. Isn't it time to bake a cake with extra iron (wink, wink) and pay her a visit?

I didn't call anyone old, and being 49 and 15/16ths years old myself and rapidly approaching the half century mark, age is not one of the subjects I wish to bring up.

And I did try to spring granny but as I told you, she fell for Big Red, the one eyed logger and she wanted to be with him, at least till his eye heals, which is only fair since she is the one who put it out, so as soon is Big red is up and healthy I will sneak across the border to get granny out of that hell hole prison. Well, unless she is falling for the big lug. A swooning granny is never a pleasant sight.

i was only 6 at the time and had no clue it was even going on!

I was 10, but lived in Germany - though I do remember hearing about it from my brother and on AFN radio. We were nutty music fans even back then...

OK, Giving my age now but as one who truly remembers Woodstock, I was 17, just wondering Lee why you wait to post a quiz i have a chance at on a day when I am gone to chemo...it was the drug thing right???

Brenda...so smart, you could hang with us flower children anytime!!!

I am only as smart as google...

Heads up to everyone about an impending quiz.

In the next few days I will post a new quiz on one of Colleen's favorite television shows. Since Pink Girl is in an American smuggler's prison for something to do with spray cheese, maybe the rest of you will get an opportunity to answer a question.

Nothing against Pink Girl, mind you. She is a quiz question answering fool, and I mean that in the best way possible. She answers more questions because she is a very resourceful person.

YAY Lee! I have missed you and your crazy quizzes! Of course I miss PinkGirl too but alas that is another thread.

Bring it on!!!!!
