Sigh I could watch that show all day and never get bored of it.
Back in the mid 70's, I got the pleasure of meeting Alan Alda at a boating accident. He owned a little island in our largest lake. I was on fire rescue. It happened on his island. He was very helpful during the incident. It wasn't until we were cleaning up and the victims were transported that we realized who he was. He had plenty of cold beer and made us some bacon cheese burgers. He was just a regular guy, and as funny as he was in mash. All we had to do was step back and look at him. Ahhh to be young again
