I done it again! [View all]

Late last night, out of nowhere, the scene from M*A*S*H in which Hawkeye says to Mulcahy, "Y'know, Father, in this light, you look just like a B-girl I once knew in San Diego," and Mulcahy replies, "It's possible. I woorked my way through Jesuit school as a B-girl in San Diego" popped into my head.

MeTV just showed that episode.

I've done that about 40 times now -- "foresaw" certain scenes from certain episodes of certain shows, usually M*A*S*H and I Love Lucy, because I've seen every episode of both a bare minimum of four times, 10 or so in many cases (more like 20 for Monty Python's Flying Circus, but it's my religion so it doesn't count).
