"Doctor, that patient's a prisoner of war!"

"So are you, sweetheart, you just don't know it yet."

--M*A*S*H


    Dreamed of the actual quote that British soldiers in World War I were "lions led by donkeys"; a tape recording of a Latin lesson.


    Saw Robert Altman's movie of M*A*S*H (for the third time, but the first on a big screen) at the Scotiabank with the Movie Meetup group.  It's one of the only movies to capture the craziness that's part of war, but it's pretty dated. (The scene where a showering Hot Lips gets exposed to the whole base is cruel and unfunny.)


    Dinner was the rest of the Indian food we had yesterday.


    Went to a Classical Music Meetup at the Mad Bean Coffee House.  A violin maker and a violin player talked about violins.
